Come'on clones....pull one out in Norman. One time, go in...execute, play 40 min of D, survive runs and pull it out on the road.

How big would that win be. 14-10 sound better than 13-11.

How's our win against Purdue look now...wow.

Brackins needs to step up, relax and play

drmwevr08 · 02-13-2008, 07:48 AM

We are already 13-11.

My bad...13-12

Gonna be tough...I'm not expecting a W tonight. The 2 brothers will be tough to handle down low.

Purdue win was early in the year. Comparable to when Drake beat us in the elite 8 year early on. It's nice to be able to say we beat them however.

Don't forget they play in the big 11.

Dont compare this Purdue team to our elite 8 team. JT, Fizer, and company would run those schmucks right off the court.

Here we go again....

I am not comparing Purdue to our Elite 8 team. I am comparing the fact we got them early in the year and were able to beat them and I doubt we could beat them now.

Drake beat us early in the year that year and there is no way they would have beat us at the end of the year.

Understand?

I'm with you. They also lost to Wofford that week.

I'd disagree. Although Purdue has probably improved a bit, I think that they've definitely benefited from playing in the Big X. I'd say if we played them again at a neutral site we'd be underdogs but I wouldn't be surprised if we came out on top again. I see what you're getting at though.

ajk4st8 · 02-13-2008, 10:41 AM

Purdue is VERY young. Easy to see why they are improving.

I laughed when a Purdue fan told us they would be an Elite 8 team nexy year while we were in Vegas. Guess he wasn't that far off.

Nice to play in the Big 10 too. You get Northwestern, Illinois, Michigan, Penn St, and Iowa.

If you played all those teams 2 times.. how could you NOT have a 10 win conf season.

Ficklone02 · 02-13-2008, 10:42 AM

We definitely caught Purdue at the right time. A win at OU would surprise me, and give some joy, two things I haven't felt in a while about ISU bball. Good luck guys.

mjones34 · 02-13-2008, 10:42 AM

I got a good feeling! We just need to play like the first 30 minutes of the Texas game. I also heard that McD put together a tape of Brackins when he was at his best and Brackins felt really good after the session and I bet he'll be going nuts tonight!

cyismydog · 02-13-2008, 10:44 AM

That's good, we need to get Craig motivated to dominate! He will be facing the second best PF in the country, and hopefully he can show his skill and what he's made of.
