Purdue was favored tonight by a couple but they are manhandling them.

 

[PauliePeppas]

That place is a real bitch to play at...not surprised

 

[Alsacs]

UVA on pace for 34 points. That would still be enough to beat us.

 

[Eric15]

4-3 Purdue up 57-36 over UVA with a few minutes left.

 

[corpjet]

That was a good ole fashioned beat down in West Lafayette!

 

[cuseattle]

ACC will be down 6-4 in this thing shortly.

 

[hoopsupstate]

Maryland is up 24 on Notre Dame. 69-40 is final for Purdue and UVA. Virginia is almost as bad on offense as SU, but their bigs can score inside. Virginia struggled to get off shots against good man defense.

ACC overall is really down. UNC and Duke aren’t what they normally are besides Anthony and Carey. UVA lost so much from last year the talent doesn’t look the same. VaTech, Cuse, Miami, ND look worse than normal. BC is BC. Clemson, GaTech and Pitt look ok but meh. Wake is awful.

Louisville is the only team that looks the part.

could honestly still see us with 7 or so ACC wins.League is down overall big time

 

[hoopsupstate]

I think Ohio State will also beat North Carolina. NC has a hard time scoring and Anthony shoots way too much.

If SU gets 7 wins they will finish with 14 wins on the season, that’s if they win three more games before the ACC starts.

 

[Alsacs]

It’s 6-5 Big Ten
With UNC-Ohio State
Penn State-Wake
NC State-Wisconsin left

I see it going 8-6 Big Ten unless Wake can beat Penn State.

Ivan Drago plays center for Purdue

During his post-game presser JB was raving about how UVA was the best defensive team in the country. A few weeks later it's rather apparent that the UVA loss was more about how weak SU is as opposed to how great UVA is. The cavs look like a middle of the road ACC team.

Our play tonight was handicapped by Key's injury. No one in their right mind would say we would have won, but it would have been closer if he played, say losing by 14-15 (a combination of his points and his ability to reduce a #3's effectiveness). We were horrendously overrated at the start of the season, let alone now.

it’s his job to promote his team so I don’t blame him .. what I don’t get is all the masses that just buy whatever he’s selling with no critical thinking

UNC getting blown out by OSU

 

[hoopsupstate]

The ACC is not elite this year. The top teams are not as good as past years, unfortunately, SU won’t beat any of them.

Sort of the reciprocal to duke blowing out MSU on the road

 

[hoopsupstate]

I guess SU is not the only team that can’t score. Virginia and NC failed to score 50 tonight.

We’ll be in the conference race. Unfortunately it’s not the kind of race we’d ever thought we be in.

[calorange]

Weirdest thing is how every game but one was a blowout. Ours was actually the 4th most competitive (by final score) of all the games.

Agreed though I thought he was over the top with his praise.

Wow you determined all of this 7-8 games into the season? Didn't realize teams don't improve throughout the season.
