POSBANG! Reg B1G Alive !!! Purdue goes down
Wow 4 threads to choose from!
Go Gophers !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My post was first you 'all
I definitely cheered for the gophers tonight, but I consider myself more of a go blue guy!
Bang! That was beautiful
WE IN THIS BITCH!!
Posbang!!! Go Blue! Four more threads. I mean Seven more threads! Hey, where did they all go?
Can 100% say with homer glasses on that the announcer was fucking hallucinating. How in the world did he think that ball hit the Minnesota player?
Annoying as hell. Had to mute the TV and it wasn't even a michigan game.
Crispin not seein' well tonight.
It did hit off Coffey... Couldn't overturn off whatever they were looking at. I consider it the universe balancing that bullshit call at Crisler last year.

Everyone here realizes that the ball changed trajectory even if there wasn't a great angle of the actual contact.
Something hit something which caused something to be called which caused something of a review which showed something may or may not have happened, that was something less than conclusive no matter how many somethings looked at something called a monitor, resulting in something that Purdue fans have something of a problem with.
A whole lot of something about nothing, if you want my opinion, so POSBANG me!!!
Hard for Purdue fans to complain after the refs gave them the PSU game.
Also, the Michigan game last year.
It did not change trajectory. You could draw a straight line from the in-bounder through the ball’s path. I wish people, especially Crispin, understood what parallax is.
And then the other idiot announcer said it hit the Gopher’s hand when that was impossible because it was on the other side of the Boiler player’s head. The announcers just wanted Purdue to get the ball because that makes for a better end of game scenario.
I agree. If we're talking about it hitting Coffey in the butt, it did not. The ball's spin never changed. It would have reversed spin or at least slowed its rotation if it hit the player. It was off Purdue's hand and nothing else.
I agree. The change in trajectory from a butt hit was an illusion. The spin never changed. Crispin be hallucinatin'. And yes, it was annoying how much he carried on about his hallucination.
The spin may have been placed on the ball by either Eifert's hand or Coffey's hand, but the video did not really show whose hand it was.
The super slow mo they were using just made it look that way
Crispin = douchebag
Time to start prepping the subs, it's gonna get crazy!!
The Endor base has been blown up. Now, for the Death Star this Saturday.
But...if we kill all the gophers...
That's golfers Carl, not gophers!!! LOL
We can do that. We don't even have to have a reason.
Amazing.
We are either the 1 seed or 3 seed in the big ten tournament. Win the game on saturday.
If we lost and so did Purdue on Saturday, we would be the 2 seed
Purdue is gonna lose. I have this feeling.
Do you really think Northwestern is going to go an entire basketball regular season without pulling off some total bullshit? Purdue goes down again on Saturday
Nah. I think they destroy Northwestern. They have a conference title on the line and are desperate now that they lost to Minnesota.
It's exciting, though, that our game on Saturday is for at least a share of the conference title. If we beat MSU, I think everyone outside the record keeping office and West Lafayette, IN will consider UM to be the real champions considering we beat Purdue in the regular season. That is, of course, assuming Purdue beats Northwestern.
Correct. Purdue loses tiebreakers to both Michigan and MSU.
The winner of the UM/MSU game will be the #1 seed. If Purdue wins, they'll be #2, and the UM/MSU loser will be #3; if not, those two swap.
The advantage of winning Saturday, besides the obvious, is that Saturday's winner will only need to face (at most) one of the top three teams to win in Chicago.
Purdue is actually the most likely team to win a Big Ten conference title, per KenPom, but they're eliminated from being the #1 seed. :)
Purdue beat MSU and should have the tie breaker against them. If MSU and Purdue win, Purdue is the 1 seed. UM is the only team that controls their seed with a win. The other two do not.
EDIT: I didn't realize that Purdue and MSU played twice and split. Sorry.
Stakes are much bigger than conference tournament seedings which don't really matter.
We are either a Big Ten Champion celebrating on Spartys floor with a banner to hang next year or they are champs celebrating on their own floor. HUGE GAME. This is what college basketball is all about.
WIN THE GAME
I think I like this huddle better!
Everything is coming up beilein
What did I just watch
Geez he's bad. They deserved to lose the review for throwing a ball up for grabs up 2 with 5 seconds left. And then during that review Painter is huddling his guys up, drawing shit up, coaching his ass off. Pitino just stood around waiting.
And all that's aside from the fact they tried really hard to give that game away for 3-4 minutes straight by leaving shooters, turning it over, and missing clinching FTs. They should've won that game by double digits.
Perhaps he was contemplating what his dad would do here and if the facilities people at Minnesota would be on board with letting such people into the locker room for some game strategy discussions.
Pure Big Ten: team with open shot to clinch the conference title chokes.
Thank you gophers for exposing a very overrated boiler team. Our fate is in our hands. We can ruin Sparty Senior night and win the Big Ten in one fell swoop, let’s do this!
Posbang for the use of "fell swoop"!
And here I always thought it was 'swell foop.' Oh well
HUGE. Time for that storybook ending. Beat State
Saturday night got a lot more fun. Let's go get a 1 seed.
If we won Saturday night, it IMO would shoot us up to a major higher 2 seed for the Big Dance and have a chance to get a 1 seed in the big dance IF Michigan were then to also win the big ten tourney. Michigan would be the outright conference winner and big ten tourney champ..that may be enough for the selection committee to put them at number 1 depending how the other teams around them do in their conference tourneys ... this is all big ifs though. Too bad Wake Forest didn't pull one out of their ass tonight vs Duke and then Duke loses again to UNC Saturday. WF almost did
