One of our favorite posts of the week is to take a look at some of our favorite tweets from game day and share them with you. With Twitter no longer being Twitter and instead being called X, an absolutely stupid name, I thought of changing the title of this but honestly the only thing I could come up with Was X’s and Oh’s! Not sure that’s completely fully baked. If you’ve got a better name, let me know in the comments and maybe I’ll use it next week. Until then, enjoy these tweets. After all, it’ll always be Twitter to me.
Ryan Walters was right, Deion Burks is a FREAK.

Can't draw up a better start if you're Purdue. Drive was 3 plays, 92 yards in just 1:15.

Mike Alstott looks like he could run for 100 yards for Purdue still. #boilerup

Ross-Ade looks so damn good

That Deion Burks 84 yard catch is the longest Purdue football has seen since David Bell in December 2020.

Mockobee robbed.

Not a huge fan of not trying seriously for a first down and giving fresno the ball back with 30 second and 2 timeouts left

It’s always nice to get some recognition from the Sickos Committee. After all, we are all Sickos at heart.

We don’t often like to highlight the opponent on these posts but man was this a great catch. Just to have the presence of mind to make that second effort to grab the ball. Incredible.
Upon review, the call was reversed, and Tre Watson's catch is good ✅

Damn Thieneman… that man has a girl

Purdue will be down to its 5th-string center.

Thieneman has been the only bright spot in Purdue's secondary and he might have just made the play of the season on day one. Incredible play there whether he caught it or not. Covered a ton of ground and took a big gain away and will set Purdue up late.

Tiller lost his first game too.
— Lyle Coleman (@ironkodiak) September 2, 2023
We were competitive which is always a good start.
Hazell lost to Cincinnati by 35. This is NOT that.
And finally, an excellent ode to the state of the Purdue offense during the third quarter and of course one of the best comedies of the 1990’s that still holds up to this day. A true classic.
We don’t got no centers, we don’t got no run game pic.twitter.com/qIQeziSqZ0
