With Thorson - NU 27 PU 17
With Green - Toss Up
If Thorson plays it will be NU by 10. If not it's NU by a point in OT! Just noticed that Steve Greenburg predicts in the Sun Times today that NU will be 7-5 and 5-4 in the Big Ten. Same for Minny, Purdue and Io-a. Also said that Purdue will be 4-0 to start the season and Illinois will win 5 games. Wonder which ones he thinking of other then Kent St. and Western? He's got Wisky at 11-1 and playing OSU in Indy. Think he's got a lot wrong. Where did he go to school?

IU fan here. 364 days I am an Indiana fan.

Today, I woke up a Wildcat.

Besides, I'd run through a wall for Pat Fitzgerald.

Good luck tonight. I hope to see many disappointmented Boiler fans. That's their nature anyways.

Does IU have a football program? Or were they downgraded to Class 5A high school like their coach?

BTW, hope it's an injury free game tonight. I'm a Purdue guy, but respect what Fitzgerald has done for the NU program. Great coach.

Northwestern is the better team but Purdue is unveiling a new field & making this their biggest opener in decades. A lot of emotion in this game for Purdue to keep it close, but Northwestern wins it 31-27.
Based on that I think the opening quarter will likely determine the game. Purdue may burn out in the second half.
