At some point some need to realize there’s only 1 ball and major QB questions for next year. Hasn’t been an issue yet but it’ll be interesting to see what happens. O-line has to get better. They actually hosted a grad transfer from Stanford today in Dylan Powell who would have 2 years to play. Would be a huge get for us. He is actually scheduled to visit IU too in a few weeks I think. He was actually committed to Purdue but decommitted when things got bad with Hazell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be chomping at the bit to go play for a team that doesn't get spanked by Illinois because it's raining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe..honestly you guys had been playing hard and I thought improving and figuring some things out without your stars the past couple weeks but today was a set back for sure. That said rivalry games are always coin tosses imo when neither program is dominant right now. Good luck the rest the way until we see you.

Catch the ball! You are absolutely right. There were some very easy catches that were dropped. Still think the running game will be something Brohm needs to address in the offseason.

I know we all know a ton of “those” Purdue fans but honestly the guy is on here win or lose...mostly lose this year and takes his lumps. He isn’t wrong Brohm will be better for the program than what they were. Much better than 6-6 maybe 7-5 tops...not sure but heck that is what we strive for. It be really easy to disappear until b-ball season but he still has good insights on what PU is doing. Even in their wins he doesn’t rub it in. Could be worse.

They have PSU, then Iowa, NW, and finish with the Badgers. I can imagine three losses in there. Then again, in a magical season, which they might be having, they could surprise us all. I haven't seen them play, so I don't know squat. Fleck seems to draw some negative posts here, as I recall. Right now he's in the running for BIG10 coach of the year, I would think.
