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 to parent up reply reply actions 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.

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.

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.

Personally I think we should rest him one more week. We shouldn’t really need him this week, but will the next 3. Better safe then sorry

My guess

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

Looks like Royster was supposed to go left but decided to go right. Lawlor had the outside sealed too. If he had gone left and bounced outside he would have scored.

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?

It's tough

to keep defending 2nd and 3 or third and 1. They need stops on first down.

I am concerned that

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.

I hope we don’t revert back to the old RUN, RUN, PASS, PUNT mentality.

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.
