Purdue lost at Creighton. Creighton is expected to be a top 25 team but a loss is a loss.

Purdue lost last year to Arkansas on the road in an exhibition, and they did not even make the tournament. Creighton is good, have a lot of shooters, and AA big man. Purdue is super young, and to go on the road and compete is a positive. Purdue has some talent, Painter will get them there. Jackobson, Cox, Burgess and Harris are going to be very! Purdue has the best guards in the conference.

Or maybe it’s as simple as Creighton had the audacity to actually guard Smith, and Loyer and TKR?

If they did, they didn’t do a good job as the three combined for over 70 points.

Also, painter did zero game planning for Creighton. Watched zero tape. Also ran out a lot of different lineups. He didn't cater to Creighton at all. He tinkered.

There was a lot to like. The center position was not one of them… (TKR was the 4) good news is they won’t see to many bigs as good as Kalkbrenner
 
I know this will fall on deaf ears but as written above, there was no attempt to gameplan... very obvious if one knows anything about basketball. Purdue played 11 guys in the first 8 minutes. There was no rotation to speak of the entire game. Creighton (like Arkansas last year) treated this as a game. Look... Purdue has a hole at the five. They have a ton of talent at the position but all need to find a role and get better.
