Need to fix the pass protection. I’m also concerned that Rourke isn’t healthy. His passing just hasn’t looked the same since the thumb injury. Need to be able to run over them. 

It’s possible he’s not 100%, but he’s been getting pounded the last couple of games and hasn’t had time to get into any type of rhythm. Plus the receivers aren’t making the type of catches they did earlier in the year. Hopefully, we can get back on track starting with Purdue.

Pass pro is a direct result of the Jimmie and Joe's we've played the last two weeks. 

I dare Purdue to play that much Cov 0/1.. won't happen.

Oh, definitely affected by the talent on the opposing Ds, but there have been too many free rushers as well.

The few times I've watched Purdue they have looked better than their record. They have a pretty good qb and a decent rb. We need to jump on them early and never let up.

Did you cover your eyes for the OSU, ND, Wisc, Nebraska, Oregon, Oregon St, and Penn State games!?!? 

(Joking) 🤣

Their TE is really good and a focal point of their offense too.  Their front seven on defense isn’t bad IMO.

If we cover the spread vs. Purdue is that good enough or do we need more? 

As long as we don’t lose, we are in. Blowing them out vs not blowing them out might move us up one spot or not. 
 

What happens around the country next weekend will have far greater impact than how we look in the bucket game.

Forecast is for temperatures in the mid 20s. Going to be a frigid night.

Anyone know if you can bring hot drinks in to the stadium? The guide mentions alcohol being prohibited, but could I do hot chocolate in a thermos. Doesn't appear the concessions would be selling hot drinks either.
