Back in January we thought we were still going to be playing tonight. Hell, as recently as 3 weeks ago we thought that. We knew it would be a tough road and I don’t think we were beating Villanova with the way they have played in this tournament, but before Isaac Haas was injured had a legitimate shot. Had everything else played out it would have meant a fourth meeting with Michigan as well. If the Wolverines win Purdue will have a two wins each over the NCAA champ (Michigan) and the NIT champ (Penn State) If Villanova wins we were a top 3 team with them for much of the season and missed playing them twice because of the Tennessee and Texas Tech losses.
