They gotta just go if they get a good shot, the wasting the clock approach never seems to work

Combined 10-44 from three in the Purdue/FDU game...I hate what the 3 pointer has done to basketball, just makes for some ugly games.

Any particular reason why the top teams and traditional powers have struggled so much this year?

Haha imagine watching that replay and giving the ball to Purdue because of an obvious foul that they can’t call.

Refs brain overtime trying to find something to overturn the call on the floor.

If you can review to see who it’s out on, you should be able to see if a foul is the reason.

None of them have any special freshmen or sophomores for one thing.

Crazy how Purdue has lost to double digit teams the last two years. Can FDU make it three?

Had never heard of FDU so I just looked it up and seeing where its located it makes sense why they look how they look today. Location matters.

Saint Peters -> Fairleigh Dickinson in two consecutive years.

The state of New Jersey owns Perdue.

Also Just demote Perdue to Div II next season.
