Was PSU already in or even a bubble team? If the lose this game to OSU would they have made it? Those 3 wins over OSU take them from NIT to and 8/9 seed?

B1G will be lucky to get 5 teams. 

PSU needs to beat Purdue. Nebraska and PSU have the slimmest of hopes right now. PSU strengthens there’s a lot with that win, but still outside. Only have the OSU wins.

The knock on KBD is that he’s soft, and he did nothing tonight to dispel that notion. Sorry to pile on, but not only did he miss his free throw, but he loses the ball on the ensuing possession (after a time out)—and then is caught standing and watching on PSU’s winning basket. A POY just doesn’t let that happen—very disappointing.

Yes, they need to, but they won't. They have OSU's number, and you can see it in their confidence when they're playing them. PSU isn't just trying to beat OSU, they know they're going to beat OSU...it reminds me of OSU v ttun in football.

Why did CJ Jackson have the ball and not KBD?

agreed, but KBD did have the ball the possession before and turned it over...my biggest beef was 'why wasn't Jae'sean Tate on the floor during crunch time'?!?

Possession before was a different possession......

Tate was where he should have been.  Playing with 4 fouls, out of control, missing layups and continally whining.....

Probably because he beat Indiana with a last-second shot and was trying to replicate the magic. And in those split-second situations, if he held the ball first after its inbounded, he's about gotta be the primary action, as trying to pass to someone else with next to no time left is never a good idea. If KBD couldn't get the ball to move immediately, he's essentially out of the play as little time as was left.

No shit, but obviously you weren't watching closely, cause he was double teamed as CJ was bringing the ball up--and fwiw, he was also out of position on the defensive end on PSU's winning shot...that being said, if Tate isn't fouled out, then he should be on the floor. Period.

I don't have a good feeling about tomorrow.

Are you guys excited to watch your team for the first time in nearly two damn weeks?

Need a good start and a good 1st half

I'm not feeling confident.

Daum is very good and very painfully white.

Survive and advance!! Nice to get a victory after missing the tournament two years in a row.
