Purdue had four double-digit scorers against Nebraska on Friday.
This isn't a role player who comes off the bench saying that.
Hoiberg also knew his best, and only, hope to win against the nation's third-ranked team was to double Edey and try to close out on Purdue's shooters, hoping they missed their share of 3-pointers in the process. "We knew all week that the defense they play with sitting low on Zach we’d have a lot of kickout shots, a lot of opportunities for me, so I just needed to be ready to shoot," Loyer said."He did a great job of being patient and kicking out."
