Great road win for Purdue. Their strength trumped Bama athleticism. They dominated offensive boards generating second chances.

 

[Survivedc]

Purdue's got a 41-25 advantage on the boards and Bama dominated us on the boards. Next level.

Bama “dominated” us on the boards by pulling down one more: 43-42. Must have been the eye test.

"Dominated" is definitely a stretch. We could have definitely boxed out better, but they missed a lot of threes and that led to a lot of long rebounds.

They also missed 10 more shots than us though.

Queens guy & long time AC w Jim Larranaga, who has done a nice job at GW.

They are a tournament team this year I think

Amazing how Philon couldn't miss against us and tonight he was nothing to write home about

Does Purdue have a greenhouse where they grow 7 footers every year?

Purdue is fun to watch- incredible experience/chemistry at the guard spots… Renn is a force.

Certified 1 seed

I think playing against a true point guard with the overall talent of Braden Smith had something to do with Philon looking mortal tonight. As big as Purdue is they wouldn't be the same team without Smith.
That is why I thought the absence of Dylan Darling was critical to our guard depth and we could have pulled out a win.

Purdue has size underneath and a guard who can feed the ball. So depends on who can control the pace better

Purdue shut me up. Great win for them. On the road. Gotta eat crow. They clearly are a favorite right now.

BYU has an honor code (see below):

a personal commitment to abstain, both on and off campus, from alcoholic beverages, tobacco, tea, coffee, vaping, and substance abuse. Any student who violates those rules can face penalties up to and including dismissal from the university or termination of employment...

Assuming it is enforced on athletes, would be surprised if Davies is back at all.
