I mean, they are going to lose by 20. Let's be honest. They aren't a good team. If you take away their ability to throw the ball in, they can't shoot a 3-pointer, and you don't have to double team them inside, they are finished. UConn's whole team rebounds.
All they do is throw the ball in, wait for the double, and throw it out 😂😂😂 for a 3 ..wtf can't out coach that look everyone stay home simple shit 😂 they coach 🤦🏿♂️
People are sleeping on Purdue, its pretty funny. U Conn hasn't played anyone relative to Purdue, especially in the tournament. Sure U Conn beat IL. Purdue beat them twice, the 2nd time at IL on senior day. Purdue is something like 13-0 against ranked teams this year. Edey also has a 7'2" guy to practice against every day.
If the 7.2 a great player? I have no disrespect for Perdue but UConn is a very balanced team. My only concern for UConn is getting into foul trouble early. If we stay out of foul trouble I like UConn’s chances. It should be a very good game. I would like to see us punch the tempo and make your big man have to run. No half court basketball. Anything can happen in one game.
You can give respect to Purdue without disrespecting UConn.. to say UConn hasn’t played anyone relative to Purdue is nonsense because UConn would’ve easily beat Utah State, Tennessee, NC State, and others
@@shyheimparker8433I did, UConn. Perdue looked pretty average to me. They have one big man and the rest of the team is average at best. No real shooters. So much for disrespecting a team that is actually a complete team. The Big East is one of the best conferences in college basketball. We only got three teams in and they all did well. None of them got beat by a 16 seed.
Connecticut is physically conditioned. They don’t tire and have depth. Everyone on Purdue was gassed at times due to a lack of conditioning, plus their bench sucks.
Perdue fans take it easy. They are just sports talk show hosts. As a UConn fan yes I think they take care of business because I think UConn is a more complete team. That said Perdue is a good team with a great player. My concern for UConn is foul trouble. If you play like you did against NCS you’re in trouble. If we get in foul trouble we will be in trouble but we are a deep team and can run up the score in a blink of an eye. Talk is talk and games are settled on the court. It should be a very good game.
Edey is a liability on defense. Refs let him get away with murder all season long. He's clearly just big they were just outmatched in every aspect. Boiler down😅
Wrong. UCONN crushed Purdue in every aspect of the game except Edey. One man doesn’t make a team, and we saw that tonight. UCONN cruised to one of their easiest victories all year in the 2nd half there.
@@ryand667You’re clueless and I’ll prove it: UCONN went 6 - 22 from 3 and could have gone 1 - 22 from 3 and still won the game (they won by 15 and just let Purdue score twice at the end). They won by wearing out Purdue and getting scoring (mostly 2’s) from the entire team, not just one man, and then they shut down almost everyone on Purdue except for Edey offensively and guarded Purdue so they couldn’t even attempt a 3 very often,
@xxyyzz8464 I don't see much difference there. UConn went to the perimetre, because their big man option was more limited than usual. And Purdue anticipated that and defended the 3 well. But when you do that, the floor becomes more open.
@@ryand667 Again, you’re just wrong and the hard facts say so: UCONN had more points in the paint than Purdue, 44 to 40, did not shy away from the paint any more than many of Purdue’s smaller players did when they sensed Clingan and Edey wasn’t there to dish off to, and UCONN would have won this game without ever even attempting a 3 given they outscored them in the paint and only needed less than 10 mid range jumpers on top of their pts in the paint to easily win.
That was almost exactly correct. UCONN won easily by 15 and was up 19, just didn’t want to foul and let clock run off so gave up 2 baskets uncontested to Purdue at end. Lol
The announcer kept calling it the final four instead of the championship game then they immediately Cutta some pre-recorded crap came back for the introductions
The final four is not enough. That’s ridiculous!! Have you seen their celebration post final 4 win?? Purdue is all business. 2 centers have been on Edey allllllll damn year and it doesn’t matter. Throw 3 guys at him… it doesn’t matter. Rotate them in and he’ll drop 30+ on em.
@@foxtailmedia8189 Clingan had 11 pts. and 5 rebounds as a Sophomore here. His average all season is 13 pts and 7 rebounds, so Edey, as a Senior, didn’t make him look stupid.

Clingan is superior to where Edey was when Edey was a Senior, and that is one reason he is projected to get picked in the NBA draft 20 spots higher than Edey.

Avery Johnson..”who’s the point guard for Purdue?” Really?? Only one of the top 2 PGs n the nation. He’s allowed to have one bad game. And he will drop 20 against UConn. He will have a double double
12 pts and was a non-factor for the most part. UCONN went into the half with a lead and EMBARRASSED purdue in the 2nd half. One of their easiest wins all season against a ranked opponent.
If whistle fair, ucon will roll however see ref; 👀 called 21 more fouls on vols and 19 more in first game - extreme ref favor! No officials from that game working tonight!
TN took 3 shots from the paint. All outside shots. Purdue fed the post every possession. Painter plays analytics, coaches to bail before fouling. Notice he has Edey drop on pick & roll D to stay out of foul trouble.

Word in Storrs is that Clingan this season has grown from 7'-2" to 7'-5" But they have kept quiet on that info.
If Purdue can stay within double digits they should be given an award.
