Purdue is also clearly the best team in the Big Ten. Big, HUGE players at seemingly every position, huge bench as they played us tight D all half, can sink the 3, and when in doubt dish it to Haas who is just ridiculous and IMPOSSIBLE to defend ... that said, unbelievable job by Pike and staff, and the guys are fighting

They're really good - they have everything - I'll be happy if we can stay within 10.

It would be nice for sanders and Johnson and to both bring their A game at the same time for once
The lack of scoring consistency game to game is the main reason Rutgers can't pull out wins against league competition.Today Johnson is hot but Williams has no points plus no help from post players.

How was that not a foul on Freeman? The guy hit his hand to knock the ball out. Right in front of the ref.

Horrible start with the bad pass by Williams, the poor defense on Swanigan and Freeman missing an easy layup. Could easily be down just 2-3 here.

He still has to finish that. Fvcking drives me nuts that we don't finish around the rim. Even with contact that should be a bucket 80% of the time.

Some costly mistakes letting Purdue pull out to an 8-pt lead but good TO by Coach. Our ball, nail a shot here and keep our head in the game

Game is closer than expected (was 25-12 when I turned on the radio) ... I see no FTS yet. ... Guess that's a good thing!

When we foul guys around the rim, they make half of them. When we are fouled, we make maybe 20% of them. We shy away from contact. I hate seeing other teams finish. If we're gonna foul, foul hard.

We have to remember we are playing on the road against the top team in the B1G.

Can't be too upset at this point

We're basically having our best game shooting the three, but we're still down by 10.

Not watching the game yet, but checked stats ... Only 4 fouls on Purdue ... It's like an RU women's game ... Settling for jump shots?

42-33 Purdue.They just have more players that can create and make shots while every possession for Rutgers is hard to watch with no shooters on the court.
