Toure is an NBA level defender. It’s absurd for a guy I had never seen a couple months ago but it’s totally true. It could have been worse for him, he’d have been absolutely devoured by either of our point guards in Hilton.

Yep, I was worried too. Very happy to be wrong. The growth of this group has been almost unbelievable to see over the past 6 weeks.
Been awhile for a Rulzzz prediction contest. Little miffed no one called an ISU blowout score. LOL
This wins strictly because it was largest margin of victory predicted.
couple non score predictions I wanted to shoutout

Exactly. You lose your focus against our defense and you are in trouble, no matter how good you are.
Smith and Loyer complained a lot.
Somebody had a thread asking if this was the greatest week in ISU sports history and I was skeptical, but no, damnit, that dude was spot on. What a prophet.
I wonder if that's why Painter can't win a title.
TJ calm strikes again. I know fans wish he would work the refs more, but this is a perfect example where doing so can lead to mental collapse.

It looked to me like he was challenged to be better than our guards, wasn't, and got frustrated by it.
There’s a reason NBA teams don’t build around a slow big anchor anymore (unless he can shoot and pass like an elite guard)…I have a feeling that’s the biggest reason why their ranking/seeding often clashes with their March result.
The goaltend challenge was desperation, because that was text book goaltend.
I also felt like Lipsey threw the between the legs pass to Buchanan in the 1st half to show Smith his passing skills were better.
I mean it was physically on the rim right?
Yeah it was literally sitting on the rim, I had no idea why they wanted to review it
Honestly I’m not sure what was the most surprising thing about this game:
How long the ball stayed on the rim or that Purdue challenged?
