GATA

Gave up 40 in the second half. To Purdue.

D has been awful this half.

Stupid shot by Benny. Serious question: Does Shavon lead the B1G in air balls?

I know we were in a drought, but I still like how our offense looks. Just need to finish.

I LOVE the aggression on offense. Let's play like this all game.

Defensively, we competed our arses off. That and Tai were the highlights for me last night. BTW, has Tarin Smith hit the freshman wall?

I found it very odd that Dakich defended the refs so much last night, especially when he mentioned several times that there were make-up calls. If you have to have a makeup call, then you got the previous call wrong. And it happened multiple times.

I was one of those who dismissed the notion of a moral victory, and I stand by it completely. It's great that we didn't roll over, but unfortunately we built ourselves such a freaking hole because of how utterly incompetent we played in the first 30 minutes it was all but impossible to win. Sorry, but the story of this game wasn't a valiant comeback, it was playing ugly basketball until the game was all but lost. As for the refs, I'm cool with complaining about them in a game where they mattered. What annoys me is when people complain and complain and complain when we get beat by 20 points.

Defensively, sure. Sam must have watched just the second half. No kidding. I love Sam's work, but he's way off here.

We don't have enough depth to do that though.

Great, maybe we can show up in the first 30 minutes next time. Stupid moral victories.

Disappointing game.

Yup. He was a bright spot for sure.

Dang, Tai had it...

I think he was daring him to.

Koenig fouled Benny twice.

Defensively, sure.

Lame call.

Yup. Nice to get back into it, but we waited too long to get started.

Too bad we waited until it was all but over to compete.

Dagger.

Ticky tack foul...

Yup. That was selfish and stupid.

Well, at least we played well for a couple of minutes.

Stupid, Terran. Incredibly stupid.
