Take the Hoosiers.
Take the Hoosiers.
Wow! I don't care if there is an asterisk next to all the records for this season. This is the most impressive Hoosier season since the 1967 Rose Bowl season. Incidentally that Rose Bowl game against USC is on YouTube in its entirety. I watched some of it last night.
That 30 second clip from ABC where all the players are jumping on CTA while he's being interviewed - that's the best recruiting tool the Hoosiers have ever had.
That clip should be a great recruiting too and I hope IUFB can benefit from it.Wow! I don't care if there is an asterisk next to all the records for this season.

I don't think Purdue's defense is anything near that of Wisconsin's.......with Penix at QB. This offense is not yet ready to score at will on any D1 team. Tuttle is still finding his way and they will not take chances. Defense wins. I wouldn't be surprised if Purdue keeps it within the spread.
I have not thought much about this but I think PU's defense is not good but with Bell and Moore to throw to I think the PU offense is better than UW's.I don't think Purdue's defense is anything near that of Wisconsin's.
PU is definitely a more explosive offense. But their oline isn't nearly as good as Wisconsin.I have not thought much about this but I think PU's defense is not good but with Bell and Moore to throw to I think the PU offense is better than UW's.
I just have a feeling that Mr. Tuttle will want to unload on PU after having a tough coming out party last week against a good UW team.
I just want a win...if I can relax and laugh and be on this site posting messages then all the better.

I completely agree. This game scares me. For Purdue, it's the national championship game and despite their struggles they have a potent offense capable of big plays. We were a much better team last year but struggled to contain Horvath and Bell. If we turn it over, or get lazy and unsound, it could bite us.I hope the Hoosiers win by a million, but this is a dangerous game. I think Purdue's talent is better than their record and that Brohm has just lost the team this year. The Bucket will focus them for a week, and our Hoosiers need to come focused and play locked in all four quarters. Purdue has nothing to lose, and they will throw the kitchen sink at this game.
But that is not in the bucket game. In years where we have been a much better team (not a lot of years, obviously), it is still usually a very close game. Just look at last year. We were the better team but had to win in double OT. 1993, we ended up 4th in the conference and Purdue last and we only won by 7. 1989, we are ahead of them in the standings and needed to beat them to go to a bowl game in A.T.'s final regular season game. They beat us.IU has beaten the spread in every game this year, by an average of about 13 points

It will be a close game, I can almost guarantee it.
This will be a tight close game. Remember last years OT?
Plus if Elliott and Bryant are back this week we have a very healthy team.I do and I don’t think it speaks to this years game. Purdue had a bunch of starters out (as did IU) but at least played hard most the year. IU asserted their will early and let off the gas. Justus missing three kicks (first time all year) allowed Purdue to stay at bay.
This years Purdue team is checked out mentally. They have guys opting out left and right and this season can’t get over fast enough. Their defense is terrible by design and as a team are very undisciplined. I don’t think it’ll be the 30-40 point blow out that many are hoping for, but IU should win by 2-3 TD’s so long as they don’t self-implode.
