Arizona better come up with a plan to handle the high screen better or they will be going home losers tonight.

I thought there was a real shot at Houston vs Arizona in the finals. Wulp

At this rate the Final Four is going to be the Big 10 Invitational... in Indianapolis.

Purdue, Illinois, & Michigan all playing in Indianapolis....Final 4 ticket prices going to be insane.

Troublesome that ISU is losing one player away from being a .500 team. Now that Jefferson and Lipsey are gone they are in trouble.

Holy hell, you almost sound effin joyful in your hopes for that.

He did make an Elite 8 at KSU.

I mean yes, but what a path that was. Got to the elite 8 by beating an 8, a 16, and a 5, then lost to an 11 seed

Stirtz is good, but seeing him this year and last, it’s pretty amazing just how good. He played 40 minutes, how many games in a row and controls everything.

Arizona has had really good 3 point looks. Not even close

How are they not checking Krivas for a concussion?

Zona cuts it to two.

Obvious trip by Cliff on Krivas not called.

Purdue has only four points first 4:30 in the second half.

 

[jspeels]

Oscar travels a lot!!

 

[exCYtable]

This game will either go down to the last shot or Arizona will blow their doors off in the next 10 minutes.

 

[cmhawks99]

They had a nice three game run in the tournament. It wasn’t a “hell of a season.”

Sounds like some Iowa fans I know…

 

[Klubber]

Oscar travels a lot!!

He's setting a moving screen every single possession and the refs won't call it. It's ridiculous.
