Seven of State’s points came off of Purdue turnovers. If Purdue eliminates the turnovers then this one is over because they are dominating on the glass and shooting just as good as State is from the field and better from the outside.

I heard an announcer once say, what’s the harm in hacking and raking and playing physical with your opponent, the refs can’t call a foul every time down the court. That’s essentially what UVA does.

UVA calls their defense "pack line". I call it "hack line".

On the other hand, if State starts rebounding better and shooting better, they will take the lead.

State won’t rebound better because this is what Purdue does. Purdue is tied for first in the NCAA in rebounding margin.

It would be one thing if this was uncharacteristic for Purdue but it’s what they do, they dominate on the glass.

Ok, but what they did in other games is irrelevant at this point.  And they don't have to beat Purdue on the boards, they just have to do better than 20-12.   I am not saying NCSU will win, they probably won't.  But if they shoot better and rebound better, they can take the lead and have a shot at winning.

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By strato · Posted

      He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc.

      Crazy stat

      By Manna · Posted

      The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
