Michigan State at Purdue: In Tweets

As I said last night, I am not a fan of moral victories, but Purdue at least looked far better yesterday than at any other point during the Hazell era. The Tweets from the fans tell the story, too:

are you drunk? RT @kylerrobbins: WELP. See you soon, @HammerAndRails. pic.twitter.com/Rmqj8a7FMv

That was… weird by Appleby. Acted like he was snapping the ball when putting WR in motion.

Just the shootout we expected.

Purdue trying not to miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity.

Three Purdue defenders pull the old Three Stooges defense and knock each other down instead of making the tackle.

Purdue is giving it up faster than a whore in post-war Berlin.

@HammerAndRails does the term bracket coverage mean anything to coach hudson?

Every #Purdue fan: Feichter is a quintessential MAC safety. Danny Hope: Yes, but he was all state tiddlyewinks, so I knew he'd be good.

Good night Purdue QB controversy.

— Not Matt Painter (@NotMattPainter) October 11, 2014

so Purdue is maybe not that bad? i'm puzzled.

All the sudden...Purdue Football is fun to watch.

I'm so used to Purdue collapsing when faced with adversity, bc that's what they've done over the last few years, but this team is different

— Michael Henry (@therailroadtie) October 11, 2014

@HammerAndRails I wish I had time to place bets on Purdue's 3rd down futility. Easy money.

— Darren S Dawson (@BoilerDSD89) October 11, 2014

Mike Sadler was suspended for this game because of his cat petting antics. Prove me wrong.

— KJ (@KJatTOC) October 11, 2014

Purdue reminds me of IU 2 years ago. Just enough ability to get up for games, but not enough to survive a full game. They're getting better

@HammerAndRails defensive halftime adjustment: msu oline looks lonely give them hugs to make them feel better

— Jay Tenhundfeld (@BigAngryGinger) October 11, 2014

why. just why.

Oh my goodness. MSU calls for the fake and Lawrence Thomas is stuffed. We'll never know the name of that one.

Purdue fans, set your clocks to 1997.

@HammerAndRails shut up and go to prom. NOW!

— Nick Traxler (@BoilerNick) October 11, 2014

@HammerAndRails a little Osborne action. I like it.

— Greg McManus (@GregMcLNK) October 11, 2014

This is the position you wanted to be in. 95 yards to Sportscenter, @AAppleby12. Let's go! Time to HAMMER DOWN CANCER.

— The Boiling Points (@PUBoilingPoints) October 11, 2014

I haven't been this excited and interested in a Purdue football game in a very long time.

— Jessica Nuss (@jess_nuss) October 11, 2014

I feel like I just got kicked in the crotch.

— Boiled Sports (@BoiledSports) October 11, 2014

After doing that all day, Appleby finally pays for it. Game, Spartans.

— John (@jberlako) October 11, 2014

MSU is going to survive. Lots to like from the Boilermakers today. Based on this performance, winnable games in the 2nd half of season

— mike carmin (@carminjc) October 11, 2014

This was a stellar game for the Boilermakers. Hard to compare the effort at this time last year to now. This team wants to play hard.

— Eric Gardner (@Gardner_247) October 11, 2014

Purdue turns it over on downs. Take three knees and get the hell out.
