Remember last year when Puredump gave up at the slightest hint of adversity?

It’s happening again: It’s the second quarter against Illinois and their defense is now showing NO sign of effort. Illinois guys not getting touched on repeated big gains. Purdue defense jogging behind the play.

And I’m there to watch it all.

5 years ago a not insignificant contingent of NFL fans thought that Belichick, not Tom Brady, was the reason for the Patriots’ success. Fast forward 5 years and Tom won a ring in his first year with a different team, Bill got fired by the Patriots, no other NFL team wanted him, and now he’s getting blown out at home by a crappy Clemson team. How times change…

That was me.  And I got it thrown in my face.

Watching Bill and UNC made a total @$$ of themselves is fun though!

Altmeyer is 14/15 for 306 and a TD in one half and change. I wonder how he would fare against a team like Indiana????

Clemson passing against UNC in the 1st half:

22-24 for 326 and five touchdowns.

PU is not all that good but they have greatly improved this year. As we know…shows what a good coach can do.
I’ve changed my pre-season thought that at PU would basically be a scrimmage. They will put up a fight.

They try hard. They are undisciplined to the mega-max.

I agree, rivalry games especially bring out some extra fight in the underdog. 

However, with our D, I feel like we match up much better with "offense heavy" teams such as Purdue.  Its the defense heavy teams that worry me more, even if they happen to have a sputtering offense.
