Any semblence of a working offense and RU is up 20...

The danger is that a few mistakes and made baskets by Purdue can now make this a loss. Remember last years blown lead vs Purdue in the big 10 tournament

Imperative to get a hoop to start the 4th

Wrong, it w was a good call. Be objective , you can still be an RU fan.

Purdue in a buzzer beater 3 pointer shoots the ball and then grabs the outstretched hand of Davenport, almost Pulls her to the ground, and the refs call a shooting foul. Can’t make this stuff up. I will say that’s a genius play by Purdue, either the coach or the player who thought to do that, but the refs are too dumb to not fall for it and no one on our staff cares enough to fight for it. Amazing b-ball IQ by Purdue on that play

Why did she not cross the time line? No court awareness.

2nd quarter a killer.

Purdue as usual 1 dimensional primarily but can hit 3s at an unreal clip and that’s been enough to win them most games

Almost a self fulfilling prophesy ... the talent on our team is actually good, so we can pull out to these leads, and then the psychology of it starts to get to them - they EXPECT a collapse, and so it happens. Then, once the comeback is complete, they go back to normal and can eek out these victories. Need a sports psychologist - the men have shown that they can stay ahead after pulling away, the women need to learn that

Great win, way to hold on vs a tough Big12 contender on their floor. Clutch foul shooting, and we never gave up

It was in the bag all along

Congrats on the win. In the end the defense came up big forcing turnovers and Guirantes and Giles came up on the other end
