Braden had a tough game vs Texas, but Purdue found a way to win 5 assists 1096 total assists for his career It's going to be a very tough matchup vs #1 Arizona on Saturday evening Purdue is currently a 6 point under dog

A horrendous showing by Braden in the round of 32 matchup vs Miami (FL) 8 turnovers and 8 assists That's 1091 total for Smith's career On to San Jose vs Texas in the Sweet 16 on Thursday

2 years ago I did a countdown for Zach Edey & bis hunt for the Purdue career scoring record I am going to do the same for assists for Braden Smith Purdue doesn't play again until December 2 NCAA: Bobby Hurley 1076 BigTen: Cassius Winston 890 Smith 821

@SleepersMedia @gwizzy12 @CarterElliott__ Per @GoodmanHoops on the @TheFieldOf68 after dark tonight, North Carolina contacted Matt Painter Paint said no thanks... Thoughts?

4 teams have advanced to the Elite 8 Purdue vs Arizona Iowa vs Illinois 3 are from the BigTen 4 more slots to fill tomorrow 2 more BigTen teams with a chance to advance

Along with that Herculean effort... Purdue better slow the game down... Control the tempo... Shoot a lot better than tonight... And hope experience helps

@BoilerPaulie What was the turnout like? More Arizona or Purdue fans?

Attendance at the Sweet Sixteen games in San Jose:

It's going to take a Herculean effort for Purdue to beat this Arizona team on Saturday.

@ElitePurduePete I'll eat crow... I'm a boilermaker.... Through and through. Texas shot amazingly from 3 throughout the game compared to our 🧱🧱🧱🧱

Illinois is annihilating Houston right now to start the second half.

@blakewidmer I was complaining about Purdue missing 4 down the stretch... But didn't notice how many Texas was missing all game long.

@DPaddock66 x.com/blakewidmer/st…

I have no idea how Purdue won 3 pt Texas 11/25=33 @ 44% Purdue 4/20=12 @ 20% Difference Texas +21 2 pt Texas 18/31=36 @ 58% Purdue 26/42=52 @ 62% Difference Purdue +16 1 pt Texas 8/15 @ 53% Purdue 15/20 @ 75% Difference Purdue +7 The game was decided at the free throw line

@SethDavisHoops Danger?? It's over

Danger zone for Arkansas.

Purdue shot more total shots and shot more free throws Rebounds basically even Purdue only had 4 turnovers, but Texas only had 7 Fouls were 18 Texas to 14 Purdue... So a few more for Purdue I'd love to know how many teams win games when they're outscored by 21 from the 3 pt

@D4Sher @MattNorlander Or the one that was missed on the Texas big that would have made the final play moot....

@DPaddock66 @MattNorlander Oh okay so pointing out the one on the most important play of the game isn't good? Alriight then

TKR with the put-back and Purdue wins a thriller and bruiser of a Sweet 16 battle. WOW!!!!

@D4Sher @MattNorlander Only if you're going to point them all out. Not pick and choose which ones you would like to see called.

@DPaddock66 @MattNorlander Just cause I don't have a rooting interest doesn't mean I can't point out an objectively missed foul?

@6CarbonTroll @iam_johnw @MarchMadnessMBB @NCAA @bigten These weren't BigTen refs...

@iam_johnw @MarchMadnessMBB @NCAA refs need to be investigated in every @bigten game . They haven’t won in over 25 years so they are doing everything they can to get a big 10 champion

Hook and hold and an over the back on TKR game winner not called lmaoo refs gifted Purdue the win

This guy knows there are multiple factors to a hook and hold, doesn't he? Where's the pull down?

@D4Sher @MattNorlander Then you don't have a dog in this right...

@DPaddock66 @MattNorlander My big? I'm not a Texas fan buddy

@D4Sher @MattNorlander

@MattNorlander But yeah let's not discuss the fouls missed eh @MattNorlander

@Jay727070421505 @MattNorlander You live in dog years?

@MattNorlander Well him and Smith have been at Purdue for the last 10 seasons

@D4Sher @MattNorlander Is this coming from someone bitching about a foul not called? Lol Your big got away with one one Braden's drive on the supposed shot clock violation

@MattNorlander Also the only player to hit a game-winner while fouling the opposing player multiple ways on thenplay
