Purdue Boilermakers at Michigan Wolverines, Nov 7, 2009 12:00 PM EST
These are just the facts:
- Purdue has not won in Michigan Stadium since 1966
- Purdue has not played a game within a touchdown at Michigan Stadium since 1995
- Purdue has not beaten Michigan in consecutive season since winning five straight from 1962-66 (four were at Michigan, our only wins there ever).
- Purdue has only beaten Michigan 13 times total.
- Purdue currently has a one game winning streak against Michigan and Ohio State, something that has occurred once since 1984.
- Purdue has only beaten Ohio State and Michigan in the same season twice: 1984 and 2000. Purdue did not play Ohio State during the five game winning streak over Michigan, as the Boilers and Buckeyes did not play between 1960 and 1967.
I wanted people to think about these today. I am normally pretty positive, but I just cannot see it happening today with our history at the Big House. You don't break a 17 game losing streak in a venue with a team like we have. I would love to be happily wrong in about five hours.
After all, we beat them with a redshirt freshman making his first start last year.

I'm confused
By the video that was posted. You mean we used to have receivers who could actually catch the ball?
shocking, I know

For some reason
I feel good about today. Probably means it will lead to heartbreak soon, but for some reason I see us putting a game together.
Busy day at Casa de T-Mill
Got this on the big screen, Miami-Virginia on ESPN360

We are not interested in stopping Roundtree
Someone has a vendetta
A futile crusade to prevent mass ignorance
HammerAndRails, SBNation's Boilermaker Blog
Shouldn't it be us?
With the vendetta. It’s not like we turned him down, RichRod came in an stole him away on signing day.
What is it about Minor?
He sucks most of the time, but he sees us and becomes a hybrid o Herschel Walker, Marcus Allen, and Marshall Faulk
A futile crusade to prevent mass ignorance
HammerAndRails, SBNation's Boilermaker Blog
Nice Return ATM
Definitely happy he wasn’t red shirted.
please stop
if they say minor is becoming a major one more time i’m going to lose it
OT
Stanzi is out for Iowa. He is limping around like its a knee/ankle. They have a redshirt freshman out there right now.
This is pissing me off
WE are just refusing to stopt hem on 3rd down. That is the only excuse: General disinterest
A futile crusade to prevent mass ignorance
HammerAndRails, SBNation's Boilermaker Blog
This is ridiculous
We just don’t even want to stop them. We’re not even trying
A futile crusade to prevent mass ignorance
HammerAndRails, SBNation's Boilermaker Blog
Stop Roundtree and Minor
That is all we have to do. Adjust and focus on them.
A futile crusade to prevent mass ignorance

We're done
That is all. Catch the f****** football, Adams.

out of camp...
..this position was supposed to be our strength
I think I'm glad I don't have BTN today.
Otherwise I know I’d sit and watch the whole thing and just hate myself for it.

come on now
are we even trying to score before the half?
Wow
Astoundingly bad.
Why on earth do you not call a timeout and take a shot at a hail mary?
One bright spot
Michigan has been awful int he third quarter this year. Not that it will matter, but putting it out there.
A futile crusade to prevent mass ignorance
HammerAndRails, SBNation's Boilermaker Blog
At least that will make our 4th quarter comeback attempt a little more interesting.

At least your Canes are taking care of business. My Deacs just couldn’t hold on to it last week without Skinner behind center.

Skinner got cleared to play but GT’s option scares the poop out of me. Wake getting run over by Navy does not bode well for their ability to play D against the same offense with twice the talent.

Come on, guys
A stop here is imperitive

Nice play Brandon King!
Would have scored if he could have just corralled it
A futile crusade to prevent mass ignorance
HammerAndRails, SBNation's Boilermaker Blog
Even now
We gave them 7 on a turnover, we just got it back.
A futile crusade to prevent mass ignorance
HammerAndRails, SBNation's Boilermaker Blog
I swear
plays like that are ridiculous. That’s just not wanting to tackle.
A futile crusade to prevent mass ignorance
HammerAndRails, SBNation's Boilermaker Blog
Are you kidding?
We don’t want a third down stop. That’s why we’re not getting it. We’re not even trying, and Torri Williams is getting taken for a ride on every play.

So glad this is only on gamecast for me
If I can’t see it, it’s not real.

Pls fire Spl teams coach...
..and give his salary to the stimulus fund
"At some point they're going to stretch the field vertically."
They’ve been saying that since Brandon Kirsch.
can't stretch if vertically
if you can’t protect the quarterback or catch the ball
We’re just setting up IU for a deep bomb. After watching film on us all season, they’ll never expect it.

Bolden running well
He needs the ball more
A futile crusade to prevent mass ignorance
HammerAndRails, SBNation's Boilermaker Blog
It took a lot of film study
But i’m ready to say it:
He’s better than me.
Is that said Ron Burgandy style?
A futile crusade to prevent mass ignorance
HammerAndRails, SBNation's Boilermaker Blog
Do you mean "I'm Ron Burgundy?" style?
Regardless, yeah, it was meant to be sarcastic.
If you are interested, other Boilers on the “He’s better than me” list include include Mike Alstott, Leroy Keyes, Glenn Robinson and Carson Cunningham’s haircut.
Not listed, Matt Ten Dam or Brian Cardinal/s hairline.
I'm Ron Burgandy?

Now if Forcier is out we have to concentrate on the run and make Robinson throw. He is awful throing it.

missed tackles anyone?
I can’t bear to watch williams attempt to tackel anymore. Watch osu psu today. You won’t see more than 3 missed by both teams all game long
Would have loved
to see another onsides kick right there. Never would have been expected.
given our kick coverage
maybe we should have been rolling the dice more often
