Purdue is the best 3-5 team we have played this year.

Rozier didn't turn around and run backwards for a 3 yard loss.

Key phrase in my comment "at times"

Your reading comprehension is pathetic as you try to make your "I'm a more knowledgeable, truer fan" argument. Where do I say anything that exhibits low expectations.  Sorry I won't be pissy about a win.  But feel free to.

Being happy about a one point win against Purdue implicility alludes low expectations. 

 

[Stone Cold]

Yep, people happy right now are exactly why we have Mike Riley as a coach.

 

[timmytbro]

I am happy for the players, I am happy for Tanner Lee, he was able to go out and get a W for his boys. Now this does not make up the fact that our coaches are a crutch for this team. our rushing game is abysmal, and the penalties are pathetic. Undisciplined and unfocused.

+++++++20 from me on this one.  But are they really the best 3-5 team we have played? :thumbs

 

[brophog]

We have some really whiny bitches on this board, can't even celebrate a win.

I can see both sides of the argument.

Its not the win, its how we won, and how we played.  Its also on the other team somewhat as well.  Purdue was beating us because we coudn't cover there Wideouts.  They quit what was working.  Its almost like they were afraid to blow us out.

Purdue is the best sub-.500 Power 5 team we have beaten this year.

It is ok to expect to beat Purdue, not just win at Purdue.  We won a game where it took both teams to have ups and downs for us to win..  Losing this game would have made this season that much longer.  Glad we won, but its not acceptable to squeak won out at Purdue.  This Purdue team has not scored alot on offense all season long.  We give them 24 points rather easily.  So even in a win we needed, the negatives out weigh the positives.  The only positive is the win and how Tanner is not making mistakes.  Tanner played well and had to for us stay in it.

Based on today’s performance, which two games you think we can win? We are not going to beat Northwestern, Iowa, or Penn State. We might, and I mean that with every sense of the word “might”, beat Minnesota. I think we will finish 4-8. I am glad at least we won one more game this season. 

Outside of Penn State, we have the talent to beat NW, Iowa, or Minnesota. I am not sold we WILL win 2 more games but we certainly could win 2 games.

B1G is going to take themselves out of the National title race.  I do think now that Wisky has more than an outside chance at making it.  I think they can compete against Ohio ST and even win it.  My issue is that Penn St might lose another one, and Ohio St can't lose another one.  Wisky has its chances, but they seem to lose a game every year they should win.  Wait and see

I did watch Rutger against Michigan today and they are improving.  They might be the best 3-5 team we have beaten thus far.
