Purdue Boilermakers at Michigan St. Spartans, Feb 9, 2010 9:00 PM EST
I have been waiting all day for this, so I am sure the next hour will take forever. Let's do this thing. First place is on the line and I'll look like a jack if we lose:
And with that, every single reader just went over to the Michigan State camp.

Our quality wins might be taking a hit this week
WVU fell yesterday, Tennessee getting taken for a ride in the first half at Vandy. Guess we’re going to have to earn back some of that reputation ourselves and it starts tonight in E.L.
Lord, beer me strength.

True
they’re not helping, but Wake is helping more than I expected. I’m glad the quality of the Tennessee win lasted as long as it did considering what happened to their players. Last I checked, Wake was blowing out BC. Agreed with the 2nd sentence.
Crap
Thanks for reminding me. The Wake game is on Fox Sports Carolina down here. It’s tucked up on some ridiculously high channel. I’ve had Purdue/MSU on the brain all day.
Wake up 63-50
Lord, beer me strength.

that's definitely understandable
this day has been going by very slowly for me too. It was hard to work because I’ve been thinking about tonight’s game more than I probably should. Hope Wake pulls out a double digit win, they have a shot at making the top 25 before the end of the season which could help us out.
Starting to pull away
Up 16 with 10 min. to go. I think they’ve got a decent chance to be ranked with 7 games left. They get GT at home on Saturday, which should be a fun game. They’ve also got a decent shot at winning the ACC. They 1 game back of Duke and a half game back of Maryland (who they beat in the only meeting this year). GT at home and VT away are Wake’s two toughest remaining games. Duke has 4 more road games including UNC (will always play Duke tough), Maryland and UVA.
Beating the ACC champion would certainly be a nice boost.
Lord, beer me strength.

that’d be awesome if they could win the ACC
Still gotta get through tonight apparently

if they can’t win with that, i’d be shocked
given the way they shoot FTs
I have a hard time feeling safe with less than double digits. But they’re up 7 with 34 seconds, so I think they can hold on
Lord, beer me strength.

they better
but guess it’s never easy especially if you cant shoot freethrows
I still think he's going to be a step slow.
I’m guessing for Sparty, Lucas a step slow might be better than 28 minutes of Lucious.
And TMill finally gets some non-Cuse related press

I think he has lost confidence since they no longer depend on him as much as they used to do
He looks as if he is throwing up his shots in hopes he can make one and get hot. Unfortunately, that has only happened in one game this season.

Both attacking and defending the rim. This is definitely the best we’ve looked this year.

Purdue’s doing well to exploit whatever mistake it is we’re making, but my God are we making it easy for you.
That's okay, we're used to getting zero credit.
Don’t expect that to change anytime soon.
Headline on ESPN tomorrow – Spartans have terrible game, blow 3 game B10 lead.
Oh, it's a bit of both
Purdue is playing very well, no argument there. But if MSU was playing well, this would not be a 16-point game. It might not even be a 6-point game.

there will be a foul called on every possession here on out
refs calling it close
Need to keep attacking the rim
That’s all MSU is doing, and they’re getting to the line every time

I would be ok with him driving it in on every possession for a while. Force the refs to call an even game
Now that's a foul?

Great win
With the Illinois win, our conference destiny is firmly in our hands.
Now get home safe tonight and get ready to smack Iowa around.
Congrats to dbaltman
it was his entrance into the site that sparked our first half run. Fortunately, we stayed in the lead from that point on.
I used up the last of my NCAA eligibility 8 years ago
So I’m just happy to contribute in any way possible.

Great game
Well, for you guys anyway. Sucked for us.
MSU didn’t play well at all in the first half, but full credit to you guys for taking advantage of it and putting us in a hole too deep to dig out of. Won’t wish you luck in the rest of conference play (though if we don’t win the conference I hope it’s you guys), but kick some ass in March.
