  [SPEAKER_01]: Welcome back to the Central Indiana Sports Report Boiler Maker fans for a special edition of the Purdue Report Jake Dunn's reaction to produce 97 79 win over Akron and Jake, there's not much more to say than that was really, really good.
• 0:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: I know I've only played a handful of games here so far, but it's probably the most complete game produced had this year.
• 0:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: Tray Gothen Renn, this performance has really been a performance and has a availability really, has been a revelation here for this team.
• 0:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: Everything really clicked for Purdue this game, 3. shooting, offensive rhythm, defensive pressure.
• 1:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: They just really dominated the board again.
• 1:07
  [SPEAKER_00]: And hopefully that's a turn that's going to keep up.
• 1:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: to the rest of season.
• 1:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's a team that's expected to dominate the Mac and be not just an NCAA tournament and you know, a team that's potential to win a couple of games in the NCAA tournament.
• 1:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's how good they're supposed to be, maybe the top mid major in the country.
• 1:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: It was competitive early, but it was all Purdue for the last 30 minutes.
• 1:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, absolutely.
• 1:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: To your point, Akron's a very, very good team right now, right after this game, they
• 1:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: A lot of these these other teams above obviously power conference teams.
• 1:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, they're certainly one of the top mid majors in the country.
• 2:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I should be they shoot the ball pretty well.
• 2:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: They're fast.
• 2:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: They're like to turn run kind of like Alabama, you know, they like to really run with a lot of pace and Purdue is really able to slow them down.
• 2:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: So.
• 2:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: Uh, I think Purdue, you know, if you, uh, kind of wrap in Thursday to this weekend, Purdue's really kind of showed why they deserve to be number one again.
• 2:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, silly that they weren't in the first place.
• 2:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: Uh, just I still don't understand how.
• 2:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: Anyone paying attention could think could rank Purdue outside of the top five, but that clearly happened by multiple people.
• 2:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: Just dumb.
• 2:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, for sure.
• 2:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: And we should also note Matt Painter is 500th career victory.
• 2:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: And that is 22nd season that has had coach.
• 2:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: So you definitely know that, Jake.
• 2:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's yeah, major.
• 2:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, Jake, back to back coaches with over 500 wins is pretty amazing.
• 3:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: The job that Matt Painter's done, taking the Purdue program that was really good and actually elevating it.
• 3:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: uh... congratulations to him for his 500th win and they're plenty more ahead certainly hope so hope uh... hope that painters the head coach of Purdue for another twenty years
• 3:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: Alright, Jake, let's look at the box score, the Big 3-4 Purdue had 51 of the 97 points.
• 3:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: Trake Offman ran leading the way with 17 points, 15 rebounds, 8 of those on the offends event, 7 of 10 from the field, water night for him, edit.
• 3:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: Braiden Smith and Fletcher lawyer both had 16 points.
• 3:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: Fletcher lawyers three for six from three.
• 3:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: Braiden Smith, Tenacist, three rebounds, two steels in 27 minutes.
• 4:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: And,
• 4:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oscar Clef also had 14 points and 14 rebounds.
• 4:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oscar Mayer, who was looked incredible.
• 4:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: 14 points, six assists, four rebounds.
• 4:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: So it was good all around.
• 4:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: Trake off in the Red Nostra Club, if you kind of combine their stats, 31 points, 29 rebounds.
• 4:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's an insane combination of stats there from your front court.
• 4:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: Akron finished the game with 26 total rebounds.
• 4:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: Trake off in the Red Nostra Club, out rebounded Akron's whole team, so that should highlight.
• 4:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, kind of how dominant Purdue was on the glass this game and hopefully something that
• 4:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: that I'll keep up here as the as a season progresses, but sticking with the front court there, pretty really controlled the paint.
• 4:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: They had 46 points inside and in the second half, they scored 18 of the first 22 second half points at the rim.
• 5:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: So really dominant performance from TKR and Oscar Cluff.
• 5:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: And to point out, I thought, Omar Meyer had a really good performance.
• 5:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: If you just kind of had a coming out weekend, if you will take what we did now, I'll be in the game and combine it with this.
• 5:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: I thought it was what's really good this weekend.
• 5:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: And he's got a,
• 5:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: kind of a little bit of brain smith, and I would say with the kind of the stat line he put up, some of the pasts he was making, so you can definitely tell that a brain smith is spent in time with him and trying to kind of mentor him, and definitely looking alike, which is good considering how good brain smith is.
• 5:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: very similar style player, they seem to work pretty well together at the same time to Mayor is a, I think he's more of a traditional point guard, but he sure can't score that basketball just like Braden Smith and on the defensive end, we talked earlier, Akron likes to run and score a lot of points.
• 6:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: Akron came in averaging 99 points a game, they're a good team that likes to score the ball and play fast and push the tempo.
• 6:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: Purdue's depth and physicality really just overwhelmed a little bit in the Alabama game that that produce, you know, depth and size and physicality, sort of where on Alabama and I think that, you know, helped in that game and obviously helped kind of, you know, widen that gap there in this game tonight.
• 6:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: Akron average 20 plus more points in previous games.
• 6:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: So Purdue was really able to hold Akron down and slow down the game.
• 6:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, didn't really well on the defensive end.
• 6:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: I believe they finished with six blocks.
• 6:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: Dino Jacobsen had four CJ Cox had won and TCR had won.
• 7:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: So six blocks from a team that they didn't have very many blocks last year.
• 7:07
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's nice to see here in this first handful of games that, uh, that's Virginia Cube blocks a game.
• 7:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: I definitely nice to, definitely nice to see you.
• 7:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: All the offensive side crews was very efficient when Purdue average 1.426 points per possession per score, about 64.7% of their trips.
• 7:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: And 25 points from the bench.
• 7:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: So even when we were Brad Smith and T.K.R.
• 7:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: are a future lawyer whenever they went to the bench.
• 7:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: The guys off the bench were able to really keep up the momentum and keep things going well.
• 7:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: When the
• 7:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: If there's anything, and it's very, very picky of us to pick apart from what didn't go well, Akron shot 39% from the three point line.
• 7:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think that's mostly a product of their good team, but also Akron had 12 offensive rebounds and for some reason produced really good on the offensive glass, but all year, they give up a lot on the defensive glass.
• 8:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'd say cutting down on those offensive rebounds for Akron and as well as the attorney the ball over Purdue had had a 13 turnovers over Meyer at three, Brad Smith had three and then few other players had had one turnover but not a lot to pick on here at your point Alabama, you know shot fairly well from three Akron shot well from three here tonight.
• 8:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: So if there's ever a night where
• 8:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: produce not hitting their shots and they're not getting things to fall.
• 8:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: Their offensive looks aren't, you're not getting good looks on offense, if you're not hitting your shots and the team said a lot of their shots, not going to build well for Purdue.
• 8:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: So they've got the experience and leadership to hopefully overcome that, would like to see a little better defense from the perimeter.
• 9:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: And now they move on to the Bahamas where they will take on Memphis six o'clock on CBF sports network and then they'll play on Friday.
• 9:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: Believe it's also six o'clock, Jake no matter what, Texas Tech or Wake Force is that correct?
• 9:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: Uh, six o'clock on Thursday the 20th, seven o'clock on 21st.
• 9:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: No matter who the opponent is, apparently, it'll be Texas Tech, most likely, right?
• 9:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, I think you're down there at Wake Forest territory, yeah.
• 9:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: Any hope for them this year?
• 9:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: Miles Colvin, I saw a song highlight from a Merleyer.
• 9:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: He'd be on Taff court shot in the first half for Wake Forest tonight,
• 9:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: So he's looked pretty good, and the minister's gotten that week for us, but wait for us, you know, they're not necessarily good and basketball and not necessarily good and football either.
• 10:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: So I guess we'll see.
• 10:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: Not since the days of Randolph Children's and Tim Duncan, I don't think Wake Force has been pretty good.
• 10:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: I hope that program gets revived when I was in the Marines and I was stationed down there.
• 10:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: Wake Force was really good to us and I enjoyed watching them.
• 10:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: When the ACC championship over North Carolina with Vince Carter and Rashid Wallace, so that was a great memory of mine from the days down there in Carolina.
• 10:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's awesome.
• 10:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: And, uh,
• 10:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: So I guess I can with the ACC or Dame is in the ACC conference and basketball.
• 10:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: They basically took Ohio State to the buzzer I saw seem like they've improved and it'll be hopefully a little better this year as well.
• 10:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: Of course, the great Micah Shrewsbury.
• 10:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
• 10:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think he'll do a fine job there up at Notre Dame.
• 10:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: I hope so.
• 11:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: And speaking of Memphis, I know I said,
• 11:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: uh... accurate with seventy-night and camp on uh... Memphis is seventy-six i think all of those teams are pretty similar to acron would be like yeah so uh... wake forest they are fifty-second and can pop so a little bit better than then uh... then Memphis and and uh... acron texas texas is really good uh... there they are sixteenth and camp on so texas been one of the best programs in the country the last decade
• 11:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: I watched a little bit of their game against Illinois.
• 11:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: Illinois, frankly, didn't look very good in that game.
• 11:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: Texas Tech looked all right.
• 11:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: So, should be a good game.
• 11:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: Assuming Purdue gets past Memphis, which all signs point to them being able to assuming they get past Memphis.
• 11:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: Most likely, we'll be playing Texas Tech for the championship.
• 11:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: And still on the non-conversal schedule,
• 11:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: have Eastern Illinois on Friday and then Iowa State on the December 6th.
• 12:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: Then after the Iowa State game on the 6th, Minnesota home, you play Marquette, you play Auburn, so it's just getting heated up Jake and you and I will be here for all of it.
• 12:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: Lucky I get the opportunity to be at the Eastern Illinois game on Friday, November 28th.
• 12:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: So be cool to be in Mac.
• 12:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: He wants once again and
• 12:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully that Dale Purdue will be going one-and-one, hopefully, and hopefully, you know, winning and basketball, and probably going to lose to you in the bucket game, but if you actually go to no, but I don't think, don't think, actually, much of a chance that'll happen.
• 12:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: Safe travels back to the Holyland.
• 12:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: Appreciate it looking forward to being back as always, and yeah, looking forward to hopefully
