Ahhh.....

I love the smell of Game Day in the morning. That, and good coffee. Mmmm.

Not to be a douche, but are there 2 kickers named Chris Summers? Brothers, maybe? Named liked George Foreman’s kids?

Where is everyone? There’s only 3:45:00 til kickoff!

Wisconsin

As long as we beat both of them

by The Mess on Oct 4, 2008 11:42 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Personally

I think we need Ohio State to win. Let them work their way back into the top 10 so they look more impressive when we play. I would rather play one great team and one good team than just two good teams.

by BSD on Oct 4, 2008 11:45 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

True

But if Wisky beats OSU, then they both have one conference loss each. If we beat both, we have a two-game lead and can afford a miscue down the stretch and still win the Big Ten title outright.

by The Mess on Oct 4, 2008 11:46 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

True, i just have so much hatred for osu that it’s hard for me to want them to win

Pregame Updates

Donnie Collins is reporting from the Press Box. Sounds like a chilly day. Norwood is dressed for the game. Sounds like the local media wants a new quarterback. He also predicts the Black Out is going to suck.

is we don’t see him play. We should have plenty of weapons to beat Purdue.

Announcers

Sure, I am a homer, but these guys were (a) pretty stoked on the 3rd and 1 stop by Purdue; (2) high on Painter’s cadence (3) down on folks anointing PSU as a favorite (I agree, but still); and (4) pretty muted on Penn State’s offensive plays, at least in comparison to Purdue’s 1st downs.

Am I just overly sensitive?

they seem to be playing very conservative. They have so many weapons on offense and other than a turnover problem the last few weeks the Spread HD has looked great.

The play-calling hasn't been that bad..

Bread and butter stuff.. We actually threw an out on 2nd and 1 on the first drive.. This looks like a typical sleepy noon game. I can’t really fault the execution so far. And right now Purdue’s offense is designed to get 30 yards and punt/miss a FG. They are draining the clock and shortening the game, our tackling has stunk too.
