I say it every year. If you bet on Purdue, you're gonna get burned
Purdue Going Down
- Thread starter bbnkat02
- Start date
Welp we will be #8 at least come next Monday.
And not just going down, getting freaking shellacked.
Only thing I'm thinking watching Purdue is Alabama is not as good as people think.
I'm sorry man, but.....that's why I will NEVER.....EVER bet on Purdue and Matt freaking Painter.
And a Marquette player gets a triple double, erasinig the D. Wade triple double recency against Kentucky.
Great night to be a Cat!

Purdue in Mackey is a different team. Alabama didn't play a great game either.
By the time UK travels to Clemson, we'll be top 5 because teams ahead of us are going to keep losing.
That's life on the road. There weren't too many teams beating Marquette in their gym tonight. Purdue is still a good team, but probably not top 10.
This. I've never claimed they were a "bad" team. But they are almost ALWAYS overrated. Like everything else in the B1G.
I'm just glad we're no longer the Purdue of the SEC, it seemed like we were always pre season top 5 and quickly dropped like a stone. I'm stoked we started out low and earned our top 10 ranking.
I feel like Pope will keep us in the top 5-10 each year, which is how it should be.
I'm gonna disagree slightly there. Kentucky should never be below T15. Staying in the T10 is hard to do these days with all the parity.
You're gonna have a bad year here and there. I'm sure Pope will too. The key is not to string together a bunch of them.
I agree, thats why I teased it to Purdue +20 . odds were at -5000 but it was just an added safe pick onto the parlay and damn did they almost still screw me lol.
It's really tough to win at Purdue. They have a really impressive home win streak going.
Bro, come on… Marquette at home + Purdue on the road after a huge win at home? That’s a recipe for let down . Jmo 👍
I'm still gonna wait until we play at Clemson and Gonzaga in Seattle before I talk crap just because a top team loses a road game.
Auburn will be a very tough out for us. The inside game matchup doesn't look great. Hopefully the 3s will fall and offset it.
Not trash talking any team unless/untill we beat them
Even then. Their tourney walk was pretty easy minus Tennessee (and they barely won that game). They then got demolished by UCONN. I'm sure several people dropped money on Edey and Co to win that title game.
Maybe so but it’s hard to talk crap to a team that was close to number 1 all year and was runner up. No matter what you think Painter is a heck of a coach who does it his own way without transfers, pretty impressive. They have been good more times than not under him.
