Magnanimous

Time to shake up the QB and play calling. No aggression whatsoever.

No

Considering the top four teams in week 2 of the season will be the four teams in the CFP, on top of the inconsistent safety procedures and politicalization of the NFL, this sport is starting to really suck.

Hit him on the shoulder.

Time to put in Penix and start taking some shots.

Let's get some points...

This offense is anemic.

If they score here then yes. Ramsey isn't putting up 21 against this defense.

Frost is dealing with a cultural overhaul worse than Archie had given what Mike Riley left him. They're not going to be competitive for years.

Big ten as a whole had an awful day.

Let Ramsey finish.

Ramsey's having himself a solid first half.

Well that can't happen.

Front seven is porous.

As funny as it use to use for some Purdue razzing, West Virginia has a very loyal, albeit insane, fan base. Doesn't make them top 5 worst when the criteria is program loyalty. List is flimsy and our fans should be on it, unfortunately....

I would as well, but it's not a favorable schedule at all given how they have looked so far.

So Purdue's upcoming games are Missouri, Boston College, @Nebraska, @Ilinois, Ohio State, @Michigan State, Iowa. They could potentially start the season 1-8. Then they finish the year with @Minnesota, Wisconsin, @IU. Purdue may be looking at a 1 win season with that slate.

The kid is talented. You don't just run for 200 yards in a game, especially in those conditions against a P5 opponent in your second game ever. Will he ever post a 1500 yard season? Who knows, but he'll get defenses' attention and really help open up our offense.

Wisconsin proved that a large enough commitment to the program and the right coach(es) can transform a team from nothing into a premier program, but I agree that it's naive to just think we can go from a historical bottom-dweller into a perennial power by "committing" more to the program. It's a fairly established club at this point.

Eh....this is a game we normally lose. Too many times has a team beat us on the last drive because we left too much time on the clock. Hard to read this team right now given we opened on the road and played in a monsoon tonight. We need to consistently play better D, which Allen has improved upon since his arrival. We're recruiting better as well. Do I think we're anywhere near becoming a B-level program ala West Virginia or Missouri? No. But I do think the pieces are falling into place for this program to become more like Minnesota or Iowa on their "off years" in that we should be able to pull off a quality upset in most seasons, expect 8 wins a season, and pull in top 40 recruiting classes every few years. We're definitely not doormats anymore. I don't think that Debord is going to be the OC beyond a few more seasons, but he's not a terrible pick right now as Allen settles into building the program's identity.

Good thing he ran out the clock though...

Huge hold missed on the left side.

If the weather was better, Penix's arm would've really helped tonight. Tough conditions to put a true freshman in for though.
