Didn’t you have Nebraska beating Minny? Your not a pessimist, you’re just becoming a realist. But, I’m a glutton for punishment…. NU 24
Purdont 21
The good: Nebraska 31-10. Their D-line will make all kinds of trouble for us, but we will manage to break off a few big plays, particularly late as their defense wears out. Meanwhile, their lack of a running game will make for many 3-and-outs.
The bad: fans will gain hope for the remaining season.

Haha, exactly. Did everyone on this board forget when Purdue boat raced Iowa this year in Kinnick? The game wasn't even close. Should have been 34-7.
What do you mean? You have a mobile QB, they have a pocket passer. You guys are wanting to run the ball, they can't run right now. They clobbered Iowa by having a quick WR get open all over the place, you guys don't complete passes like that.
Hard to make a prediction on this one.. I feel like many of the fans including myself, have sort of checked out already.. might see the same from the players tomorrow.
They could still fight and win it too.. so I have no idea what's going to happen.
Does it matter?
that's the ugly question that comes to my mind.. geez that's low, but that's what I wonder..

Oregon State is pretty good and Illinois beat Nebraska and Penn State. So don't quite get the pulse comment. Only team without a pulse was Uconn who was and is ***. Should be a close game... coin flip game in my opinion
True, but if I was a fan I'd go to the game just for that light show between the 3rd and 4th quarters of the Michigan game. I assume they'll do that again?
Legend has it if they do it, it means Frost is coming back. If they don't, it means Frost has been let go at the end of the season.
I am going 27 -24 with the Huskers on top. I hate losing to my wife's alma mater. (I will watch in my man cave and she will be in the family room. The dog will go back and forth)
I also remember when Purdue boat raced Ohio State, then went 2-4 down the stretch, including a pretty bad blowout against Minnesota. difference being that Ohio State team was legit and this years Iowa team is an 8-5 team in disguise.
still think it's a close game tomorrow, but I'm putting zero stock into them beating Iowa as proof of that.
I could see this turning into the Nebraska/NW game and not be close. Not 56-7 but 34-13 type of game.
Several posters are saying this. Hope you are right. The way they played Iowa makes me wonder.
Frost’s dismal record off bye’s is concerning but this should be a good spot for Nebraska. Coming off a bye week, Purdue coming off back to back physical games. I’ll say Nebraska-30 Purdue-20. Then we lose out and finish 4-8
Win. Then lose to osu. Then beat wisc. Comes down to beating Iowa for a bowl game, where we trip over our dicks yet again
Not saying it won't happen, but why does everyone expect Nebraska to have one of their best scoring days vs a top 10 scoring defense?
If the Purdue dline plays average, George karlaftis will be double teamed with some triple teams and the other 3 will get some pressure on AM. If George is single blocked, lol AM will get hit a lot.
Can we all just admit that if NU gets beat today, at home, vs a crappy PU team that it is the end for Frost?
Probably be a little harder less effective to do during the daylight but they’ll probably do it
