Purdue wins 87-80. Braden Smith was spectacular and the Boilermakers really have some very good inside players and they out rebounded the Tide by quite a lot.
That was quite a game, looks like Purdue survived a close one 87-80 on the road. I could not watch the game live due to Disney and You tube TV dispute.
Was a great game...could have gone either way. Was happy with how we showed up. We got some breaks. First road win against a top 10 team since 1982, they said. Hard to believe but I guess it's so.
Kind of and odd game tonight between Duke and West Virginia, women's basketball. There was a bit of a scrum at the end of the 1st half, Duke player taunted a WVU player who shoved her then a lot of shoving, but the thing was the WVU players on the bench ran on the court to "support' their teammates. It's an automatic ejection. They had 6 girls ejected. They only had 5 players left to go the 2nd half, yet they out played Duke in the second half and won by 8 going away.
I agree, Terry. Weird game. I don't envision Duke athletes being undisciplined, but apparenly it was a Duke player who initiated the scrum. In the end, it was WV who paid the price but they won anyway. Go figure.
Alabama has played 2 top 10 teams and will play 2 more top 20 teams in the month of November. I hope this strategy works out in the long run.
