Purdue is in pretty good shape all things considering. UT shot out of their minds while they were missing everything. They also got UT bigs in foul trouble.

UT had a great game plan and were doing well until the fouls caught up with them. They did a good job of 4 out and making Edey vacate the post area on defense early on. Tennessee is going to have to get nuclear from three to win this one in the second half. They just don't have anyone who can play Edey straight up.

Everybody not named Knecht was 5 for 18 for Tenn. He's made 7 shots the rest of the team 5.

I meant from 3 I think UT is shooting over 50%. Kneckt is shooting over his average I believe and James is also 2 for 2.

For 10 minutes of play Tennessee did whats needed to win by 5+.

For the other 10 minutes they did whatll get them beat by 10+.

I'll take ...in the 2nd half category ..."gettn the beat by 10+". for $200 Alex.

Answer: What is " the Orange Lovers" ?

15-2 run by Purdue to end the half. Still think Tennessee wins.

I think UT can still win but feels like they should have been up by 8 at the half.

Knecht did what he needed to do, buy the others time. Purdue's entire 1st half, despite the run, was a wasted opportunity. I didn't think UT would win at first, but now I do.

It's a shame one of these teams isn't with Duke and the other one with NC State because I believe they would both advance.

Edey with 0 fouls that entire half is beyond laughable
He’s a very difficult player to officiate. He’s so much bigger than everyone else, the only way to stop him is to rough him up to a certain extent. If the refs aren’t going to call every contact the defense initiates on him in the name of keeping some flow to the game, then how much he’s allowed to push back before calling a foul is also made into a tricky judgement call.

Someone might want to whisper in Painters ear that Knecht is hot from 3.

You can 100% bet that ifDuke plays Purdue, Edey want be into the second half with Zero fouls.

In facts odds are high he would have 2 in the first ten minutes.

Purdue has a better chance at stopping UCONN. Although since 1980, they have been Duke's *****.

Just 0 and 2.

UT under Rick Barnes is prone to periods of offensive ineptitude. They were horrendous to end the half.

UT had a wide open Zeigler for 3 and Knecht drove it at Edey
UT had a layup and Gainey didn't pass it.

If they lose they are going to look back and notice they played a little too selfishly in certain parts of this game.

All I can think about watching Alabama last night was both Kentucky and Ohio State beat Alamaba.

And right now watching this game all I can think about is how Kentucky won at Tennessee the final win of the year and Ohio State beat Purdue this year.

Gets away with murder on the boards. Just got away with a blatant push on that offensive board. Then gets an incredibly generous whistle when he has the ball.
I mean I get that but honestly he gets mugged up and down the floor lol they could call multiple fouls every single possession.
