I guess Iowa's collapse will start in March this year...

[JP4CY]

What's their defense?

Beyond optional.

 

[IASTATE07]

If Iowa shot its season average from 3 against Michigan State it would have had a great chance to win the game. Instead, Iowa shot terribly from 3, which is why they lost by double digits.

Let's give both the Iowa and Michigan State defenses their due.

What's their defense?

103rd, which is a lot better than you thought it would be this season.

103rd, which is a lot better than you thought it would be this season.

Yikes.

 

[CyTwins]

103rd.

Yikes!

 

[awd4cy]

103rd, which is a lot better than you thought it would be this season.

Woof, that’s not good..

 

[benjimill]

Might catch fire once out of 10 games. Not good odds.

Yes, a player who is on pace to finish in the top ten for most made three pointers in Big Ten history might only catch fire once out of 10 games. Brilliant analysis there, sport.

Benji, you might want to tune into CBS. Purdue will show you what to do against teams like Michigan State at home. Probably also helps when the fans all show up.

Where does his % rank?

Jorbo hasnt improved since he was a freshman at all. Other than playing defense optional Penn State, he's played terrible lately.

But he really is good at dribbling in circles until no time left on shot clock, and grabbing and holding

Purdue is better than Iowa, so I am sure they will play Michigan State closer than Iowa did.

Why has his percentage dropped so much this year?

 

[BryceC]

Iowa played well enough to win against Wisconsin and Michigan State, and in both games couldn’t buy a shot from the perimeter.

Playing well enough to win, but losing by 15? If that's the case almost every team plays well enough to win every game.

What's his 3 point percentage this year?

 

[awd4cy]

Purdue is better than Iowa, so I am sure they will play Michigan State closer than Iowa did.

Michigan State better get it in gear if they are wanting to make it close.

 

[benjimill]

Why has his percentage dropped so much this year?

I don’t know. Some of it is due to opponents trying harder to prevent him from getting clean looks, but he has missed a lot of wide open threes this year. He was shooting much better over the last ten or so games prior to the MSU game.

If only you can play more Bryants.

Yikes, that Spartan offense that just got done scoring 52 in the 2nd half of their last game has 19 in the first half today.
