I still can't believe that even with Edey pouring in the points that Purdue lost. I was so hoping Purdue would pull it off but it appeared the 2nd half was just too much for Purdue. Turnovers did not help the situation. Nevertheless, Boiler Up!

Danny Hurley is a really good coach but he looks like he's about to have a stroke on the sideline during some of the officials' calls. And IMO rightfully so. Edey gets away with more than any defender is allowed to when getting position. Similarly, I don't see how 3sec wasn't called multiple times on him!

Much like the girls game, the best team beats the best player. I enjoyed watching this years tournaments.

Edey accounted for more than 60% of his team’s points…..love watching him play but that is just not a winning formula…

Purdue mens and Iowa womens teams just ran out of gas. Bummer!
Lost to very talented teams that seemed a lot fresher.

I haven’t intentionally watched a basketball game in years. So watching those 3 women’s game has tapped me out. So I’m good for another 20-30yrs.
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

I heard Purdue can't keep up and will be out paced. Apparently SamOlson is a basketball savant!
