Boilermaker fans are strange birds.
Purdue is on the verge of something unprecedented. They have won 12 straight games. They’ve beat Arizona on a neutral floor and Butler, they’ve traveled to Maryland and won, and they’ve hosted Louisville and won. You have to go back to December 3rd when Purdue hosted Northwestern at Mackey Arena to find a game where they didn’t win by double-digits and dominate the whole way through.
And yet I wake up to read a message in our group chat from a certain unnamed and supposedly fearless leader who thinks tonight is the night the clock strikes twelve.
