Not the greatest game Purdue has played, but they did not trail in the 2nd half. Northwestern is a team that will keep the game close and might win some close games. I think beating them by double digits is a good accomplishment for Purdue at this point in the season. Buckley made 7/8 free throws in the clutch. When he got a rebound a guy behind me was yelling pass it to Lowe, he is the only good free throw shooter. This was because Buckley had missed his 1st free throw and McKnight had missed 2 in a row. Buckley calmly hit his next 6 free throws to seal the win. Lowe and Buckley are probably are two best free throw shooters right now. The zone defense limited our inside game, but Kartelo found a way draw some fouls and finally make his free throws (5-6) after going 1-13 before the Northwestern game. I'm looking forward to the home game with MSU on ESPN 7 PM EST on Tuesday. I'll be back in row 2 of the student section, GO BOILERS!
