***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT PURDUE BIG TEN OPENER IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[GoodasGold]

Edey is an "unusual" looking person. Almost like a 'Star Wars' character.

He is extraterrestrial for sure. Not certain which planet.

 

[jblass]

Almost seems unfair to have to play against a guy like Eddy!

 

[BTChamp]

Edey is an "unusual" looking person. Almost like a 'Star Wars' character.

Reminds me of Yao Ming

If we could just buy a 3, this would be a tie game.

 

[GoodasGold]

If we could just buy a 3, this would be a tie game.

I’ll chip in a buck.

 

[GFBfan]

When the Gophs move the ball, they look OK on offense. Just have to do it more consistently.

Agreed. Then they go through possessions where it's jack up a 3 time and they look so bad.
They need to be more consistent with their movement and should as the season goes on.

 

[GopherBlood777]

Playing reasonably good defense on Edey so far all things considered.

 

[Gopherbbdude]

I'm ok with our play ... gotta hit some open shots! Battle should pass once

 

[Outsider]

Has Henley made a three all year?

 

[Gopherbbdude]

Has Henley made a three all year?

Yes

 

[big10guy]

Still too much standing around, players watching and then someone feels forced to jack up a shot. Would like to see Garcia spend more time inside and for him and Battle to get a few rebounds.

 

[howeda7]

The FT's are just embarassing.

 

[howeda7]

Thank you Cooper. He needs to do that much more instead of throwing a wrap around Michael Jordan pass.

 

[howeda7]

That's just unfair.

 

[short ornery norwegian]

Nice little push by Edey to get some space.

 

[GFBfan]

That should have been on offensive foul on Edey for throwing Payne off balance

 

[howeda7]

Can Edy teach us FT's after the game?

 

[howeda7]

We're actually not playing that badly and we're still getting blown out. Sad.

 

[BrooklynBadger_Gopher_Fan]

why is Samuels playing?

 

[short ornery norwegian]

I think I understand what's happening. The other team is better.

 

[stocker08]

Battle has been a black hole since coming back.

 

[GopherBlood777]

I don't think Battle is going to get right until January

 

[Gopherbbdude]

Ugh!!!!

 

[BTChamp]

Purdue can take the rest of the half off and still extend the lead

 

[PhiloVance]

Trying to find something positive...got it! Did you watch the women's bb game last night? They are exciting!

 

[BrooklynBadger_Gopher_Fan]

Samuels can't hang in the Big 10... he should just be a practice squad player

 

[GopherBlood777]

why is Samuels playing?

JOJ foul trouble causing us to play cooper and samuels at the same time

 

[fan of Ray Williams]

I think I understand what's happening. The other team is better.

Unfortunately at this point in time, much better.

 

[kg21]

Pure Garbage!

 

[GFBfan]

That was an ugly 4 min stretch
