# Go Lose Boilers

Lose now but win later. Seems like every year we get into this time of the year when the Purdue Boilermakers are ranked atop the table in Mens’ Basketball and then their season comes to a thumping end. Seems to be a trend in most of the sports I follow these days! India in World Cup Cricket or 49ers in NFL. Boilermakers have set the record for most disappointments in the March Madness run ups, even beating the Dallas Cowboys who now know not to root for in the post season.

Today, the Boilers lost a close one to the Ohio St Buckeyes. Call it a fluke or freak loss, fact is this loss ought to wake them up. 3rd this season but the closest to the post season. Will lessons be learned? If not, they don’t deserve to win it all. UConn ain’t snoozing in the post season. Last year I posted the Boilers don’t have the teeth and grit to win it all. This year at this point seems no different. Let’s see what happens here on in. Atleast it promises to be something else.
