Fired Bill Carmody: This time it's Purdue's time to choke away a victory

This time it's Purdue's time to choke away a victory

the Boilermakers were in control until they decided to go over 8 minutes without a point in the second half.  Purdue missed two of three free throws in the final thirty seconds when they could have made it interesting.

this certainly was a big-time road win and i'm sure it's been a long time since NU won at Indiana and at Purdue within a week.  seeding for the conference tournament is still very much in the air; i haven't done all the math yet but i think there still exists a scenario where Northwestern could finish 5th and get a first-round bye.  wow, i can't believe i just typed that.

So is there any long shot, million-to-one scenario where we make a run in the Big Ten tourney and land a spot at the Tournament?

Stan, I hope so just to read the anxiety-riddled posts from FBC.
