Hopefully we'll have better news today after the Sandi Marcius injury. that is not the best way to start the basketball season.
We are live in Madison this morning, headed towards Camp Randall for the first time ever in a few minutes. I actually was offered tickets to this game in 2003, but turned it down because, as always, I am an idiot. There is no video highlight to get us going this morning because if you search Purdue-Wisconsin football on YouTube you only get THAT game with THAT play. We finally expunged those demons two weeks ago, so I am not invoking them again.
Comments are now open. As always, I'll try to leave one or two via mobile web, but since it is so tricky I can't promise anything.
I'm pretty sure this game didn't end with a catastrophic fumble.

Could be a long day
This has the makings of a long day- a totally inept offense and a hit or miss defense. Elliott’s interception was a bad decision on top of a poor play design.

Off of Cloud 9
… well the next 3 games will really test this team’s character and onions… oh well they had me happy after the OSU win… Another reasonable goal this year would be to win the next 2 out of 3… probably win on Senior Day and win @ Bloomington (road game curse ends and keep the bucket….)
What's happening?!
These guys are playing …well bad! We know they are better than this! I think the Bucket game well be a challenge for us, IU is up 21-7 at the half over #4 Iowa! Let’s have a better second half…BOILER UP!
One of the ugliest halves ever
Yeah, I guess winning that Ohio St. didn’t change this team as much as I had thought. We were just lucky to have played inept Illinois the week after. That half is about as ugly as it gets. Really only 1 quality victory on the season, although it was a high quality victory which I can’t seem to explain right now. Blah! At least basketball season is about to start
That was just plain bad
Seriously, how does Elliot run for 1 yard on the Hail Mary? Did he forget how much time was left?
We got outgained in the first half

Catch the ball
wow, we look like we forgot how to play football this week
This is miserable
These dropped passes are killing me. They’re letting the ball get all the way in to their chest.

And then there's the defense
Welcome back Mr. Missed A. Tackle

Unreal
That is now 5 end arounds run by Wisconsin to to the left side. All 5 have gone for at least a first down.
Try watching Wake Forest lose to Navy
when Navy never even attempted a pass.

Unfortunately
I may have enjoyed that game better than this one.
on a positive note
at least we didn’t fumble the kickoff
I like burning the redshirt on Mcburse
He’s been a huge lift in that area.

....
but we allowed a guy to jump over our 3 man wedge to block a punt. for a td… might as well be a fumbled kick off
Summers took forever getting that blocked punt off. I was actually pining for a 7 yard punt
by doublegoldandblack on Oct 31, 2009 1:59 PM EDT up reply actions
still
the 3 guys didn’t even try to block him down on his but when he left his feet… that’s pathetic
Ugh
Well, here’s to us playing for some pride. Maybe we’ll score today. Really brings us back to earth. Certainly makes the slate of games left all the more difficult.
It can't get much worse
We got away with a lot of these mistakes last week because Illinois was so soft on the run. There was absolutely no offense game plan to start the day and when the defense gave up an early 10, things just got uglier.

Danny Hope post game Comment
I hope he goes Mike Leach and says that the Boilers need to stop listening and getting love from their “fat girlfriends” and focus down for the next 3 games… lol
I'd love to see that too
but I have a feeling coach hope will make a ton of excuses and say hang in there with us, remember we beat ohio state.
No matter what excuses are made
this team was not ready to play today.
by doublegoldandblack on Oct 31, 2009 2:07 PM EDT reply actions
Can we please take that rollout pass off the play sheet for today?
Elliott holds the ball way too long.
by doublegoldandblack on Oct 31, 2009 2:09 PM EDT reply actions
so instead of fumbling...
…. our new epidemic is just not CATCHING the ball?? LOL but nice plug with Brees and Orton they just showed… laughing right now
Don't we have a roadie against a MAC team coming up?
Oh wait… maybe we should just concentrate on beating IU
by doublegoldandblack on Oct 31, 2009 2:14 PM EDT reply actions
unreal
i know we’re down 31-0, so it probably doesn’t matter, but do we really have to run on 3rd and 13. Can’t we at least pretend we’re playing a football game?
We haven't completed a pass since the end of the 1st half
We’re finding new records to go after.
by doublegoldandblack on Oct 31, 2009 2:20 PM EDT up reply actions
We wait until now to burn his redshirt?
by doublegoldandblack on Oct 31, 2009 2:22 PM EDT reply actions
He was a redshirt last year...
Nobody cares about your fantasy baseball team

It's like watching those damn Saw movies
I don’t want to watch, but I have to see what crazy ways they’ll find to kill themselves.
by doublegoldandblack on Oct 31, 2009 2:27 PM EDT reply actions
I thought...
…she was more into seafood, as in clams? LOL
YESS!!!
The first completed pass of the second half.
by doublegoldandblack on Oct 31, 2009 2:37 PM EDT reply actions
LOL
of course if we completed a pass, it would be short of the first on 3rd down
Somebody put Brandon King on offense.
At least he can catch the ball
by doublegoldandblack on Oct 31, 2009 2:42 PM EDT reply actions
just when you thought it couldn't be ugly enough
then we can’t even score from there
this is just pathetic
so much for getting better every week.
Just close your eyes and repeat after me
We beat OSU. We beat OSU. We beat OSU.
by doublegoldandblack on Oct 31, 2009 2:50 PM EDT reply actions
haha
I know we did…but I guess its not possible for us to get up for EVERY game, thats too much to ask. They just like to get our hopes up a lil and then SMASH every little bit of them.
strange thought...
…. Had Purdue won out this season from the OSU game on out… it would have be a six game winning streak which would have been awesome way to tend the season (bowl game notwithstanding).
That being said… I would rather our basketball team end the season with a 6 game winning streak in early april than the football team end the season with a 6/7 game winning streak in late december….
Just wondering what Purdue athletics must do to get some favor from the NCAA gods….
It was Halloween
but i didn’t expect a horror film this early. Maybe coach Hope will reimburse you for your time just like the Oregon coach did.
