First-half thread for NU vs. Purdue

Bowser must be reinjured. Damn.

Just made a catch..."pitch" count maybe?

Bowser must be reinjured. Damn.

Errr... Check that.

 

[IAWildcat79]

Tough call here...that looked to be pancake territory

 

[kaTNap]

LOL ... Ted just called Peyton Ramsey "Peyton Manning".

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

Seemed relevant after that 3rd down catch. He's been huge on 3rd down all year.

I saw him catch one short of the sticks once and he was so disappointed in himself

 

[IAWildcat79]

RCB again!

 

[TerraCat]

Great throw - great route!

 

[Rodenthater]

He’s out there

 

[jensberg]

18 rushes 30 yd that says it all

 

[chariots]

It's been a few years but we are looking at a true #1 WR

 

[IAWildcat79]

Great throw - great route!

Great little fake to the inside, left his QB plenty of room to the sideline to drop that throw in

 

[Figrating]

Chaokaiho-Bowman, I think - we're all gonna have to learn to spell it right - Ramsey's favorite, and you can see why.

Disappointing. Hope they can make some adjustments to the blocking schemes at halftime. Pass protection has been excellent.

 

[chariots]

Newsome vs Bell is a heavyweight title match

 

[corbi2961]

Thought he was a LB. Maybe now a pass rush specialist?

He showed an ability to rush the passer from a three point stance on his HS tape. That was clearly his best skill.

 

[bjm989_rivals]

Newsome is really balling. Step for step with Bell on most plays so far.

 

[corbi2961]

NO MORE lateral runs for Drake! Come on!

What?

 

[IAWildcat79]

Announcer just said NU gets it first...didn't we have the ball first?

 

[Figrating]

That guy coulda been flagged for hitting Lees...

 

[IAWildcat79]

Ramsey has to eat that...I think he was trying to shovel it forward.

 

[IAWildcat79]

Great hustle play by AA there.

**Edit - Hit post too soon. Big play there because it prevented a first down, which means the clock kept running, meaning Purdue has to either waste a ton of time or they need to use a timeout.

 

[GECat2]

We do not have outside speed running the ball. Run it up the middle and pass. Ramsey has had all time to throw. This game should not be this close. Sheesh!

 

[IAWildcat79]

Almost 2 to 1 in offensive yards
Almost 2 to 1 in TOP
PU 1/8 on 3rd downs

All good things happening in first half.

It has nothing to do with speed. Anderson is plenty fast enough. Sometimes it’s a bad call, or it’s blocked poorly or sometimes the defense makes a great play. Anderson is the same guy that outflanked and outran a very fast Nebraska defense last week. Speed is not the issue.

 

[Fanaticat98]

What?

The lateral tosses to Drake have netted about -10 yards. Unless the OL opens more holes we are going to need power running game in the second half. They are just not allowing Drake to bounce his way outside or cut back in.

 

[Titanium999]

PU corners are good run defenders

Pound em!
