Is it my imagination or has Barnhizer not taken a shot in the second half? If he did it was an hour ago.
Unbelievable game. Back-to-back years of knocking off #1 Purdue at home. Just unreal.
The gutsiest performance I have ever seen by NU basketball.
Just unbelievable... The tenacity, the heart, the grittiness. What a team!
I want to be like Cappy when I grow upMan I would respond to this comment so differently if Cappy wasn’t here
Buie just keeps adding chapters to his legend here.
WRA has become such a great place to see big games. You can feel the energy through the TV in a game like this.
Gotta love Boo! Refers to himself and Edey as the two best players in the country!
Buie 31 pts, 9 assists, ZERO turnovers

My heart goes out to those of you who were in Welsh-Ryan tonight. Seriously...you're going to need it. Hope you all survived your heart attacks.
Boo to Andy Katz: I mean it's a battle of the two best players in the country

I love it. Boo is the most clutch NU player I have ever seen. We beat Purdue even though the Edey had a foul called on our defenders if they breathed on him. Boiler down boiler broken
Painter and all of Purdue fan base soft as charmin. Never stop complaining about refs. Edey is 7'4", stop bitching and moaning every time you lose
Boo will get some grief for his comments but it was the two top MVP players in college basketball. They define their teams. MVPs may not be the best, but the most valuable.
My (Purdue) friend said he was going to cry himself to sleep. I replied that I got it, but I was going to be smiling in my sleep. He replied that he also understood.
I just watched the post game comments by Painter and he gave a lot to credit to NU, and said the refs were great.
He had Jordan confidence (don't freak out, he doesn't have Jordan skill). He just knew he was better and proved it. I like that about him.
Painter just said in the press conference the refs were outstanding.
That’s Purdue talk to “they called a foul if anyone’s breath was in the vicinity of Edey”

Painter just said the refs did an outstanding job. He is a class act and great coach.
He was sincere. I like Painter, no excuses.
Ty Berry had his best game as a Cat in my opinion. Langborg also getting a lot of love from Collins, though he could’ve saved me some white hairs by making those two free throws down the stretch. But gotta love this team.
It was fun. I was at the Michigan win also. Missed last year. I was at another game when the students rushed the floor against Purdue. Mr. Marcotullio has seats in front of me. He said that was a surreal experience.
The best part of tonight’s game was that Barnhizer was off. He knew it and did not force it. He let his teammates get it.

This was a perfect night for both Ty and Ryan to catch fire.
Earlier in this thread, there was some shade thrown at Preston. We should also give him credit for that terrific steal he created late in overtime. That was huge!
It's true. Preston struggled at times last night, and some were hard on him, but man did he come up big with that steal. I can't even fault him for that foul on the three (changed to a two) right after that because of that steal.
I *want* Preston to be better than he is, because he is always in the middle of things. I can only hope that he can show the same adjustments/improvements this year as Tydus did last year, as NU is going to clearly need him. Of course we should all be excited about Hunger's growing game. If he keeps improving, he will pass Preston on the depth chart.

The missed free throws from (everyone!) Preston were killing me - 2 for 7 by the end. But the only thing he did that stands out for me this morning was at the very end when we had a four point lead, seconds left, and he left his feet at the 3pt line when a made three wouldn't have actually mattered. That was a throw back to last year's "bad Chase" defense and I said some mean things to Preston in the moment.
Agree completely. And another thing we should keep in mind about Preston - he was giving 7 inches to Edey.
