Yes.

I just said that in another thread. At the very end 2 different guys shot 80% and 85%. Both didn't miss. 1 miss and Purdue doesn't have to force 3's.

Yes! St. Peter’s boxed out. Bigger Purdue we’re going over the back and fouls followed. Push it, open man, attack, rebound and free throws. Game over.

No it shows that major conferences have diluted talent since all their top recruits leave after their freshman or sophomore season

Also, if you watched the Texas A&M vs Houston game over the weekend, Texas A&M went 29-45 at the line, and Houston went 21-30 (they went into OT) and if Texas A&M had made just one more, they would’ve won the game, because 29-45 is awful

Superior talent on paper only

This team played fantastic in all 3 wins over the duration of the game, not just during the final minutes. They dog walked KY and left it all on the court. They are the superior talent.

@@christopherashford4194 come on man these guys on these schools like Purdue and Kentucky are bigger faster and stronger. Definitely more talented, but talent isn't everything

@@christopherashford4194 St Peters hustles....and limit mistakes.....they've been fortunate that nobody has found a hot hand but credit their defense. That big center from Purdue isn't agile....he's somewhat limited inside and was laughable chasing St Peters speed. Confidence is everything.....this team plays team ball....they're very well coached....they have good ball movement and they won....by far...the turnover battle. They also do a great job of slowing down the opposition. Purdue struggled to get the ball to their side of the court and it seemed to make them uncomfortable and out of sync. It takes excellent conditioning to constantly pressure the ball like they do......Pitino was probably sickened to lose the conference final to them. Now Pitino is probably thinking his team could have made a run as well. The truth....however...is that this team is embracing the moment. North Carolina is in for a dog fight. I'm a believer in this team. Amazingly this team was +1100 to beat Purdue. A 100 bet on St Peters would have brought you back 1200.....that's a nice piece of change. Scary to think how much a bet on them to make the Elite 8 would have returned if somebody bet them to beat their first 3 opponents. My mom and dad were born and raised in Jersey City in the 1950s....my siblings and I were born there. I lost both my parents over the past 8 years so it s nice to see this happening now. It's been fun watching these kids.

it's like 1 of these coaches over here in mid-east coast {[because i cant remember exactly which one]} used to always teach: u can have Pure Talent or u can have Developed Skill(s) but Raw Talent guys w/o developing their talent into Skill makes for a mediocre players leading a mediocre team at-best!

I love it! MADNESS!!!!!!!

Best tournament I've seen in awhile so many good games

NFL playoffs are my 2nd favorite post season next to March Madness

All the money that are being made by some of these colleges are mind blowing. Players should be given something. Only right! When you have coaches making 8 millions and more yearly and players get penalized for being offered and accepting a pair of sneakers, that’s not ok. We can do better. To me, it seems like some of these colleges have a slavery mentality. Work hard sun up till sun down and you get nothing. Players go back home and their parents are struggling while their children are making other people rich. We need to really pay attention to that.

I AGREE 💯! Amazing!

It’s even funnier the second time!

lol FDU 😅

Can they choke again?

FDU lol😂😂😂😂😂

It’s the New Jersey schools that are Purdue’s weakness man. First time they were ranked #1 in the regular season and they were immediately beat by Rutgers. Then they were knocked out by 15-seeded St Peters. Then they were knocked out (as #1) by 16-seeded FDU 😭😭😭

It sounded like it too just watching from my house 😂

Was that a surprise?

this is crazy and I live in ARIZONA...respect to St Peter's

A Cinderella doesn't win 3 games in a row against higher seeded teams. This team has talent and works as a team. For example, in this game, Purdue hasn't seen a press like that all year. Great coaching an players executing. Call it what you want.

I like how they press but then back away at half court

This been the craziest yr in college hoops I put 50 on St Peters winning it all they pretty much playing out home in Philadelphia Jersey City is 2 hrs away them east coast are awesome sepha NJT trains are awesome

I don't understand how to BIG programs like Kansas and Purdue fall victim to a waayy smaller program ???? Somehow this reminds me of Spud Web winning the NBA dunking competition. VIVA SAINT PETER'S!!!!!!!!

No such thing as 3 flukes in a row

The close out at 11:54 says it all to me. Idk if I've ever seen such a fast close-out before.

@@longiscadenotas4890 Kansas didn't fall to nobody get it right

They Are NOT Soldiers!!! They are college basketball ball players!!!

@@scottcatlette5639 he didn't mean it literally

@@stanleyezidiegwu7187 fr lol

They have endurance. They’re well conditioned.

They knocked out Kentucky and still unpredictable 🤣 🤣 🤣

@@razokmt1520 the thing is Kentucky obviously underestimated them. Murray St did too but they aren’t as good as Kentucky. Purdue had a whole week to prepare and was probably as good a team as Kentucky. The fact they STILL lost is actually shocking.

@@razokmt1520 fr this shoulda been predictable by now 😂

You never watched football? I don't mean the bs hand egg sport either.

Better than NBA cause that’s just a bunch of millionaires with their own brands but these guys have something to prove

Captivating is right.

Other than Butler in 2011, that's never really been the case. George Mason, 2010 Butler, and Loyola Chicago all played very well on the way to the Final Four and in Butler's case, the national championship game.

@@manuginobilisbaldspot424 yeah, those two Butler squads were some of the grittiest ball players I’ve seen on a Bball court. The Peacocks are gritty too, obviously. What really jumps out at me though is how smooth and fundamentally sound they are at n their half court offensive AND defensive sets. They’re as in sync as any group I’ve ever seen in their offensive half court sets.

@@joshuapaulgibson4212 I agree they honestly play kinda like the Suns in the NBA. They get a good shot every time, limit transition and always seem to be in control. It's amazing to watch

yup. they’re very poised on the court like that been doing it all season. doesn’t look like luck but out playing the other team.

both teams weren't (really {be real about it UNC was widely doubted too}) favored to win their Round Of 16 games, both teams did! Now both teams simply have to remember how (the play making & play breaking of opponents) which got them thus far in this years tournament unlike Baylor / Gonzaga / Purdue / USC / Murray State / UConn did!

I think they play more team basketball than individual talent. Except KC guy

The school has like 2,000 students. Considering the size of the school and its alumni size, it's a great turnout.

@@ft9kop Not really Steve. Their gym capacity is 3200. And the size of the school isn't necessarily related to number of fans at a team's arena.. So for example many teams in the Big East play in 15000-18000 stadiums but have enrollments of under 10,000. Teams get fans far beyond the student body of course. The bottom line is 526/3200 is not a good number.

haha that's exactly what I was thinking!

No….Jesus does not allow humans to know what is going on Earth……the elite decide who wins and losses in sports…..certain coaches and players have sold their soul to satan for championships, money, and fame…

And BLM getting free advertising from the bench so they can buy more mansions! What a country!

Patron saint of “netmakers”

as is Elnardo Webster their 1968 NIT star that passed this week

The Tennessee Vols and their coach Rick Barnes...are YOU learning from this??

Tar heels or Cinderella heels

@@Luke_Emia 😂😂👌

That way you're not distracted, at least ... but you oughta get out to a sports bar or something, the next game could be historic. Go Peacocks!

Reminds me of Loyal-Chicago a few backs made it to the final 4

I get your point honestly even as a fan of football/gridiron, I mean sure there are regular season upsets but smaller schools don’t get chances to win the national championship except for in extremely rare circumstances like this past season when Cincinnati made the CFP. College Hoops are just far more fair to the small schools in the end.

I think they're probably a little better than your homeboys

You mean Doug does. Lol

KC Ndefo and Drame are both 6’7 lol

@@drewharrison1840 draymond Green is 6'6 lol

Loool

this was also the finalee of The TarHeels vs The Bruins later that night!

You do realize that they are going to deliberately pass it to guys who are good free throw shooters, right? This stuff isn't rocket science

@@andrewdynes5300 I think what he is saying is that many of the players on the floor were food free throw shooters so any one the Purdue team decides to fowl they are doomed

There already will.

No, yo voy con Villanova...Nadie esperaba que estuviera en el Final Four... Especialmente con las actuaciones que tuvieron contra Seton Hall & Marquette...Siendo realistas...Siento que el campeon puede ser Duke o Kansas...Pero me gustaría que Villanova ganara el titulo nuevamente como en el 2018 y el 2016.

Absolutely right

Now that going to open door for smaller schools to recruit 5 ⭐️ players and make athletes stay closer to home

They themselves are a Division 1 program tho soo ????

@@koywilson9427 u know the difference stop acting naïve…what top recruit u know would pick a small school from Jersey city with an athletic budget less then what the head coach over at Kentucky, Duke, NC u name it 🤷🏿‍♀️ r getting…Div 1 u r correct but there are levels to this sh$t…St. Peter’s coach make 107,000 vs. Calipari u makes 7.8 million is what I’m talking about…Holloway out coaches him so it makes u wonder 🤔 is Calipari a great recruiter or great coach uuuummmm 🤔that’s the type of stuff that’s being exposed…Is Ivy all that he’s been hyped up to be besides his mom coaching at Notre Dame? and I can on and on but u get my point. Blue Chipper recruits vs. Chip on the shoulder recruits is almost like talent vs. Hard-workers 🤷🏿‍♀️ I’m going with the hard-workers on this one…Will they get past NC? Only GOD knows but hey u gotta give their guard play credit…(Top in Nation) at this point 🎤🎤 drops mic 👋👋👋👋

@@nataliejordan5179 ah so you meant a power five school. It’s actually more common than you think for a big fish to go to the small pond so to speak. Take college football for example, the number 1 HS recruit in the country just signed with a small HBCU school and turned down offers from Bama, Clemson, LSU and so on. A lot of that has to do with Prime bein Their head coach but still. It happens more often than people think.

If they can beat North Carolina they will have beat the best team in the tournament. Duke can’t beat North Carolina.

An #16 FDU with a 5pt lead over #1 Purdue with 1:00 to go. The Gods of B-ball hate Purdue.

You should be embarrassed, 9 teams from the B1G in the field and not a single one in the Elite 8...! I am a fan of all Indiana teams including IU, PU, and ND, but how can you be so neg to Purdue? Happy for St Pete but sad for Boiler Pete!

@@user-kz9ot4zv5e tuyere right I’m happy to see this because saint peters as a 15 seed went to the elite eight

They knocked off just ONE blueblood. Very laughable to call Purdue a blueblood.

Purdue is not a blue blood lol

A "sciene"? What's that?

There’s a reason that a Big Ten team hasn’t won a title since 2000. And no, we don’t claim Maryland’s 2002 national championship as our championship.

A call that went the wrong way you could add

David beat Goliath...again

So the committee is supposed to seed teams in the exact order of their finish to "prove" they are watching. Got it. Saint Peter's resume this year MIGHT have justified a 12 or 13 seed...but no one would have had them making the second weekend. That said, I'm certainly rooting for them.

They look like a 5th seed.

I've been there before but simply just don't go on social media or intentionally try and block out any names after you search for the highlights

@@whatintheFUCKbubbs the first highlight video I clicked on was the full highlights for this game. I had expected the next video up in my recommended feed to be highlights from one of tonight's other games, but instead, it was this one, so I had the result of the game of the highlight video I was watching spoiled by this video's title being next in my recommended feed, making that video feel a bit pointless to watch. If they'd have made the title something like "Saint Peter's vs. Purdue - Incredible final 3:42 of their Sweet 16 matchup" or something along those lines, myself and others in my position wouldn't have this issue. They did something like that for Illinois vs Chattanooga and Michigan vs. Tennessee, so I don't know why they couldn't have done it for this game.

What are you? IU fan? UM fan? Sparty fan? Iowa fan? Who's your team, sport?

Good for St Pete, but don't hate on Boiler Pete
