Hell of a Win

[wadesworld]

Now beat Phucky.

[ChitownSpaceForRent]

That was an awesome win. Not pretty, but what a grind by those guys. They didn't fold like they did last season.

[DJO's Jaw]

Glad we didn't all lose our minds at half time. That would have been embarrassing.

[Heisenberg]

Help me here ... I thought a couple of brothers left the program because MH was a ball hog. 

Did anyone tell Koby or Sacar because it sure looked like they were taking the shots in the middle of the second half and I did not see anyone complaining?

I honestly thought the title was "Half of a win" when I first saw it...and it made sense

[RushmoreAcademy]

Ring out Ahoya!!

[GoldenZebra]

the change in defense after the half was pretty crazy to see. Purdue couldnt get anything going. I dont think they scored a FG in the last 5 minutes or so.

[GB Warrior]

This is why none of us are fans of B10 basketball. Hard to watch at times.

I actually meant to title it "Hell of a Half" but got caught up in excitement.

[PGsHeroes32]

Really gritty win.

I thought Purude was overrated coming into this year and didnt get why so many people were worried about them.

But still a great early win.

[BallBoy]

To hold a power conference team to 17 second half points is amazing defense. Wojo told his haters to hold his beer.

[Johnny B]

This team with Jaycee will be top 15 defense.

There was a difference between the 1st and 2nd.....

I made the mistake of taking a peek at the game thread during halftime.

As usual, a bunch of folks humiliated themselves.

Ripping on Jamal even though he was our main energy supplier ... writing off McEwen 60 minutes into his Warriors career ... the usual suspect, the one who can't spell, calling pretty much our entire team "incapable" ... everybody trashing Wojo, with another of the usual suspects getting ready to break out the "victory" cigar because he loves nothing more than celebrating when Wojo doesn't win ... pining for ex-Warriors who were big reasons we fell apart at the end of last season ... and so on and so on.

Some of y'all don't deserve a winning team.

The length, quickness and strength on the perimeter with cain, elliot, bailey, sacar, and mcewen absolutely shut Purdue down.  Not just in the second half but for the entire game.  Unfortunately we did a horrible job rebounding in the first half.  As soon as we corrected that we really shut them down. 
This team may struggle to score at times this year but they can really stay in front of people and make things difficult.  Look forward to it after a number of years of really bad defense.  Defense will keep us in games,  if marcus can get enuff help offensively we can give It a run.

You're truly the worst of the worst here. Stop posting and delete your account.

Cain staked his claim for more minutes in the future.

How about that offensive rebound Jamal skied in to grab late in the second half? Anim diving for the loose ball. All the plays where Purdue had a wide open fast break and someone chased them down to block or strip. Every little thing counts.

That post was completely fine...maybe you read it wrong but he is looking forward to this skilled defensive team after their defense not being so great in the past.

[Earl Tatum]

Bailey again did nothing. Team win--WOW! Great game for Coby

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

This defense is sexy as hell, I kind of dig it

[Lighthouse 84]

We're going to need Ed though. Fouls need to be avoided bigly.

I'd advise you to read his multiple garbage posts in the game thread and others. Dude is an embarrassment.

[IrwinFletcher]

Agreed, but with him in foul trouble, everyone stepped up and we got the win.  Sign of a good team.

[wadesworld]

The defense was good.  I'm not certain Purdue is going to be a great offensive team, though.
