Northwestern 45, Purdue 17: In Tweets

The In Tweets column is always interesting because you can track the wild swings of emotion in weeks like this. Getting outscored 45-7 after taking a 10-0 lead will do that.

@HammerAndRails do you ever get used to seeing Ross-Ade so empty?

SO MUCH ROOM FOR ACTIVITIES! https://t.co/oD2wYOH9ub

Is it too late to change my prediction @HammerAndRails? https://t.co/fQBhSquXJN

@HammerAndRails If only we could've found a way to get Purdue to play these two teams at the same time.

#Purdue scores first for the first time since the season opener against Eastern Kentucky.

It appears even the #Purdue football team is pumped up that it is basketball season now.

Can't argue with that. https://t.co/HkrtcFkGHK

Best first half team in America.

— Boiled Sports (@BoiledSports) November 12, 2016

Having no one within 10 yards of Austin Carr seems like a mistake

#Purdue: At least one turnover in 14 consecutive games

— mike carmin (@carmin_jc) November 12, 2016

#Purdue has given up 56 points off turnovers in the last two-plus games. #Boilermakers only scored 7 points off turnovers in same period.

@HammerAndRails Interim coaches don't get challenges.

— Chris ODonnell (@chrisod) November 12, 2016

@HammerAndRails ... timeouts are used before you take a knee. Get it right.

— PJFleck4Purdue (@robertpgill) November 12, 2016

@HammerAndRails I'm glad that awful spot played a part

— Scooby Dooby Doo Van (@Riles23) November 12, 2016

@HammerAndRails trying to figure out why this game would be any better next year on a Friday night

— kevincross (@Kcross32us) November 12, 2016

Chin up, it's basketball season :) https://t.co/exu6phBVuZ

Why is Second Half #Purdue already on the field? @HammerAndRails

— Brian Williams (@BrianWi26493505) November 12, 2016

@HammerAndRails 2016 is going to be remembered as the year the sinkhole was much too small.

— Anthony Rufatto (@HR_ApprovedName) November 12, 2016

@HammerAndRails bucking the trend of leading at halftime. Smart choice #Purdue #football

— Brian Schmidt (@BSchmidt9) November 12, 2016

Northwestern opens up 21-10 lead early in 3rd. Only so much this depleted #Purdue defense can do at this point

— mike carmin (@carmin_jc) November 12, 2016

Abhorrent (ab-hor-ent)
adj. 1. disgusting, loathsome, repellent 2. #Purdue defense. @HammerAndRails

— Brian Williams (@BrianWi26493505) November 12, 2016

#Purdue opponents scored 17 TDs, 0 FG off 25 turnovers this season

— mike carmin (@carmin_jc) November 12, 2016

Mike is such a positive guy and we love him for it. https://t.co/o4E07JVKgO

— Boiled Sports (@BoiledSports) November 12, 2016

The Purdue offensive line, already thinned, looks gassed and ready to fall over. Can't protect Blough right now.

— Jumbo Heroes (@jumboheroes) November 12, 2016

John Moten is looking like Neal Anderson is in prime today.
Man that Purdue run defense

— Paul M. Banks (@PaulMBanks) November 12, 2016

Purdue is really really bad

— Loretta8 (@Loretta8_SoP) November 12, 2016

@HammerAndRails No depth, not much talent, key injuries = blowout losses in 2nd halves.

— Bill K (@RunnerBill) November 12, 2016

. @JustTMill @HammerAndRails Seems like a good time for this: https://t.co/CT6ZrGPnE8

— AllMySportsTeamsSuck (@AMSTS) November 12, 2016

Both Northwestern running backs over 100 yards today. Wildcats averaging 6.3 yards per carry vs #Purdue.

— Nathan Baird (@nbairdjc) November 12, 2016

@HammerAndRails Wisconsin already has 200 yards rushing vs Purdue
