TKR is all effort on the boards right now

jack3moto • 1 points

Tkr with 9 boards. If he finishes with 20 boards I’m going to go nuts. Idc what his point total is, just keep being the beast underneath and grabbing those boards. offensively, someone needs to make a open fucking shot that’s not named smith/loyer. Like Comeon.

Hell if Cluff and TKR do nothing but outrebound Nebraksa 3:1 then Purdue easily win this game

TKR didn’t even attempt a shot in the first half. That’s nuts.

personally, the vibes are pretty bad i think

Feels too good to be true. Nebraska’s only shot to come back is to rain 3s.

dasMetzger • 1 points

just a pair of Nebraska 3’s away from the crowd and momentum being a major factor. gotta come out just as strong as the start of the game.

I think the shine is starting to come off Nebraska. Very solid team but I think it’s clear they are a second tier team. Proven by the fact they are going to lose their three toughest games in conference.

@Illinois?

Traditional_Frame418 • 1 points

Michigan, Illinois, and now Purdue.

unknownkoalas • 1 points

Yea but they won @illinois which is a top 3 hardest game

Traditional_Frame418 • 1 points

By 3 and it was in December. Nebraska is a huge flash in the pan that is clearly losing steam at one of the worst times. I know Husker fans will hate hearing that. But they should be used to fast starts that crash and burn, look at their football team.

Yes but Illinois wasn’t as good then. Still a major win.

I’ll never understand why FS1 has a live halftime show yet won’t do a live pregame studio show and instead shows racing reruns

Honestly Purdue should be up way more. Wouldn’t be surprised to see a rally from Nebraska to get this close.

Any Purdue fan will tell you it’s not surprising, it’s expected.

I hate everything (I’ve only been paying half attention to the game)

Cluff had 0 rebounds at halftime the last few games. 7 today.

jack3moto • 1 points

Tkr and cluff with a very loud 16 boards to start the game. Cant settle for less than 30 between the two.

ILoveTheDailyWire • 1 points

This has been the difference to me. Him being more locked in helps our team so much

Nervous_Connection88 • 1 points

Loyer was the one getting shit lately, but in my opinion it’s Cluff that’s been the issue the last several games. Glad he showed up so far this game and I hope it continues.

Huh, hmm, I haven’t watched Nebraska yet this year, maybe the 2nd half will be better?

EasyBreecy • 1 points

By far our worst half of the season. And not even close

AtmosphereVarious440 • 1 points

i like how much loyer is shooting, can’t be passive if purdue gonna make a run

jack3moto • 1 points

But he’s not making them. Started 2/2 or 2/3 and has since gone 1/6. Some were tough shots but some were early shot clock pulls that he’s gotta be more consistent making.

dasMetzger • 1 points

every other offensive efficient team is a volume shooting team. we needed to take notes earlier

I can’t tell if Nebraska is switching differently than they normally do on defense or if Purdue is just picking/cutting different than any other team, but feel like we have never left this may guys getting the ball wide open.

They are playing against the best passer in the sport so that helps

T-nawtical • 1 points

And considering the entire basis of our defense is predicated on being set and picking off any sloppy passes, an elite passer that can push the floor is something that is not easy for us to stop. It’s the deal we had to make considering we can’t rebound

Nebraska is very out of it on defense right now

Holy shit. During that, they were rushing a shit ton, and now they don’t go fast enough. They are like pre 2025 Darnold seeing ghosts out there. They are mentally shot and don’t recall the last time that I have seen a team perform that badly the last 5 minutes. This might be do or die for them. Well, in the sense that it will tell us how they would play in the tournament. Need short term memory here.

nhusker23 • 1 points

When you can’t shoot for shit play terrible defense you’re gonna have a bad time

I was pretty slow to come around to recognizing Braden Smith’s talent, because he looks like a 5’10” Amish guy, but it’s actually incredible to watch him play. He’s so good.

yahboiyeezy • 1 points

Easily the best pure point guard in the NCAA. Passes better than anyone else in college rn, and can shoot and dribble drive up there with the best of them. Flemings, Acuff, etc are better scorers, but no one can compete with Smith’s passing.
