It’s wishful thinking on your part to say “only a matter of time until they start losing commitments.” They could lose some but it’s far from a certainty.

Boston College.

Why? I’m sure they realize they could play right away next year with how much of a talent upgrade is needed.

Glad I made your night!

Exactly. BS call.

Lol at the refs screwing over Purdue. That’s a garbage overturn.

Solid get for you guys.

I’ll agree to disagree as this is a silly discussion about hypotheticals. I think it’s funny to say “you would’ve gotten smoked if you would’ve played them one week later or two weeks earlier” and if IU had done something similar and I made that claim, I’d hope you’d call me out for such a baseless argument. I don’t think you’re giving Purdue near enough credit for doing what was necessary to win those games. Did Iowa play poorly? Sure they did. But Purdue had a lot to do with them playing poorly. And no, it wasn’t a trap game. I’d think after getting embarrassed their coaches made sure to get them fired up to play Purdue as they knew this wasn’t the same team as it had been under Hazell. Purdue also caught some unlucky breaks too especially on the injury front.

Had Purdue played Iowa or Missouri any other weekend they would’ve lost? You realize how ridiculous that sounds? Iowa had just gotten spanked by Wisky the week before so saying that Purdue was a trap game isn’t accurate at all. If they had hosted Purdue after thumping OSU at home you’d have a point. But after getting embarrassed by Wisky, there’s no way you can say they weren’t up for that game. It’s laughable. Please explain how that was a trap game scenario.

Oh I’ll absolutely admit that. I think Purdue could’ve still gone bowling last year in the east but there’s no way to know of course.

Saying Purdue was gifted their record is laughable. Playing teams at the right time? Aside from Missouri firing their defensive coordinator before the game against Purdue, please elaborate on that comment. According to this, Purdue had the 33rd toughest schedule and IU had the 43rd. https://www.teamrankings.com/college-football/ranking/schedule-strength-by-other?date=2018-01-08

2 bad games. Pretty simple really. Still a lot of season left.

Solid start for sure.

Didn’t watch the game lol.

Yeah I saw he did. Can’t remember why though.
