Folks when playing well we are as good as anyone in the country.
Final: Purdue 87 #2 Bama 78
- Thread starter Uncle Adolph
- Start date
These two teams have the toughest schedules out there. It will be interesting to see where they go from here.
It's tough to play a top 25 team on the toad ooc. Bama plays 2 of them.
Well.. maybe their early close games were a sign that Bama isn't quite there yet.
Sec will always suck at basketball.
Yeah, that's why Bama made the FF last year....
And why A&M is handling Ohio St. right now....
I just toad my friend that. 😁
College basketball has always had upsets on the road. Doesn't mean bama won't be good. Doesn't mean Purdue will be good.
We will see how we do at Clemson and against Gonzaga n Seattle shortly.
Lol idk why the phone auto corrected road to toad but that's funny. I'm tipsy but not drunk. Give it time though.
2 really good teams. I love how oafish sports fans either minimize the winner or disparage the loser in these types of games. 2 great coaches who have their programs humming. We will hear much more from both this year.
We stepped up and matched the physicality with Duke, Bama wilted from the physicality of Purdue.
Yeah licking toads is probably not the best idea before a big game like that. LOL.
Just bustin yer chops. I hate spellcheck too.
Oats is at the point in his career where Billy Donavan was just before Donavan realized that the only way to win the big prize was to make sure his teams played hard, physical, basketball on both sides of the court. After that Billy won back to back.
If Oats can grasp this simple concept he will step onto the next level and be someone who's teams should be feared.
Thankfully he will probably join the NBA shortly thereafter.

Mackey is an incredibly tough place to play, especially for a big games. Toughest in the B10, by most accounts. Would've been cool to see Kentucky and Purdue do at least one home/home while the IU game was being cried about all these years.
Bama was pretty physical as well. There near the end Purdue was hitting shots and Alabama wasn't. I will say the Frosh Philon for Bama is going to be a problem for the league this year. Dude had some quick, herky jerky moves and handles and had a good looking shot.
Mackey Arena has become one of the toughest environments in the country. Purdue should never be anything but favored to win there. It's a snake pit.
Yup. Bama wins that game on a neutral court IMO. Coincidentally the ncaa tourney is on neutral courts so I think this board is over reacting to this loss, which is typical.
