I'm not even sure where to begin.
In case you haven't seen or heard, the Purdue Lady Boilermakers conquered the giant in Ohio State by the score of 63-61. That's not the bizarre part, however. Click the first sentence and scroll down for a bit. Don't worry - I'll wait.
Got it?
HOW ARE YOU THE NO. 4 COUNTRY IN THE NATION AND GIVE UP A 16-0 START TO AN INCONSISTENT PURDUE TEAM THAT JUST LOST TO MICHIGAN STATE BY 18?
Sorry, I just had to get that out.
I'm sure we'll hear a quote saying how you have to come to play each and every night in the Big Ten. After that, I'll let the recap speak for itself (and the boards). Another little tidbit, Purdue came in the contest with the lowest RPI of the conference; Ohio State obviously had the highest.
Speaking about recaps, here's one (Michigan Daily) about yesterday's Michigan victory over Indiana. One (Indiana Daily Student) from the opposition. And finally, a slideshow (AnnArbor.com) to see it.
Does Purdue's victory make me worry about the Wolverines' chances on February 28th? Eh, not really.
The Lady Boilermakers are still a really young team that struggle on the road (2-6 this season). According to the stats, they aren't a great offensive squad (third worst FG% in B10 contests), yet get the job done defensively as they hold a 5-5 record in conference play. It's too soon to look forward to that game, so we'll end it there for now.
A preview for Michigan at Illinois from Assembly Hall will be on its way later this week. Stay tuned.
