LET'S GO HUSKIES!!!
Going to leave this here and then move it to Off Topic after the game is over.
It is going to be a battle. The Coach of the Year vs the Player of the Year. Do the feisty Huskies have their bulletproof vests on? Let's hope so!
I just wish the game was on at a more reasonable time, but you know, West Coast eyeballs have to be able to watch, too.

Wow, that is late. 9:20pm right? I'm currently a west coast viewer and would have been happy with 1.5 hours earlier!

We better really appreciate this team tonight. Gonna probably lose 4 out of 5 starters. I still remember BE game against Hoyas in field house and being in second row. This team has been soooo entertaining and likeable . Being treated to this for two straight years has been incredible.

I agree that probably quite a few will go to the NBA. This has been a fun team to watch. Cam Spencer was a great add from the portal.
This is going to be a battle.

They don't call travel that much in the men's game. Refs are more used to the quick steps. Surprised by that call.

A clear foul and the Purdue player raises his hands like "what did I do?" Same as in the women's game.

I think this might be a back and forth game the whole way.

Talk about an illegal screen . Edey takes out Diara.

Kinda looked like offensive goal tending to me.

Sitting in some of the seats in that stadium/arena and watching the game must be like watching ants crawling on a painted sidewalk.

It just occurred to me that Edey reminds me of Lurch from the Adams Family. I have kept thinking he looks like someone I "know"

Karaban has been quiet tonight. Wake up, Alex. Time to play ball!

Alex is playing really great defense. But I would love to see him hit a couple of 3s.
Cam is just amazing. So is Tris.
Loving Slamson's roll-and-smack!

Edey travels A LOT. Glad they're calling it.

Lead up to 16 now. But, yes, fouls could come into play.
