They play tonite on Fox at 7. Crazy how many college football games are played during the week now. Several have been played on m-t-w-th. this week.
OT Wahsington at Purdue
- Thread starter oldxbbc
- Start date
Tue-Wed games started last week. They used to call it “MACtion,” but it’s not the MAC anymore - mostly C-USA, with some Sun Belt and AAC (I think the MAC starts mid-week games in Nov).
Football on TV (NFL or FBS) every day of the week from Oct 1 - Nov 30.
One of the few things that is an improvement in modern college football is all these weekday games.
Purdue is much more competitive than expected this year, I like their chances at home against a disappointing Huskies team.
I firmly believe football should be watched every day of the week. Year round.
Based on how Wash played against us, I think they’ve mailed in the season after they lost the close one to USC.
Meh, I would have assumed the way that Minnesota played against Michigan they were going to flatten Purdue. Also, Williams is likely out this week, and we saw what Brown did against our defense.
We had no tape on Brown. Purdue does. If you listen to the latest cinematic recap, you can hear Hawk players intimating that the Wash D gave up. I think Purdue gets them by 7.
Not sure tape would have mattered on Brown, he was a pocket passer that delivered some nice throws with tight coverage. I would agree that I think Purdue will get them, but that Purdue squad is feast or famine. Purdue has one of the worst passing defenses in the country. Ranking in the 113 in passing yards allowed and 106 in passing efficiency. Washington has a health issue at RB, so they won't be running the ball. All I am saying is, I wouldn't be surprised if Washington finds a way to pull it out.
Yes, a lot of G6 and the UNI type leagues play any night they can to get some revenue and not have any other games televised at the same time.
We will see if Wash. head coach can rally the players and probably save his job but not his contract money which he gets no matter what
yes, that is k ind of my theory too. those two close losses to Minny and USC just took the air out of them. Sometimes teams can rally when facing adversity, and sometimes they implode.
another big Question in that realm is how willMichigan respond? I am guessing they will not rally this year either.
The Purdue game @ Kinnick has me more and more worried every time I look at it. They throw to open up the run. Outside of their early season blowout loss to #2, Notre Dame, they've been competitive with all their losses to ranked teams.
They lost in week 2 by 2 pts, in overtime, to #21 Wake Forest. QB was 32-42, 329 yards, 1 TD, 0 INT
They lost on the road @ #12 UCLA by 14, but they put up 38 points, got down 21-7 after 1st qtr. Had ball down 38-45 with 10 minutes left in 4th. QB 19-30, 378 yards, 3 TD, 1 INT
Beat Illinois on the road. QB 18-27, 255 yards, 1 TD, 0 INT
Destroyed Minnesota at home. QB only threw for 159, but they ran for almost 200.
If they handle Washington with ease tonight, add them as another very tough game we have remaining. I think add them regardless of tonight.
QB is good, 1,549 passing yards already, 9 TD, 1 INT, 69% completion rate. He can run decently too.

Looking forward to watching this game. I haven't watched much, if any Purdue games this year and don't know much about our hated rival.
Shredded us with some help from ray charles officiating crew.
if you watch Purdue try to run, that’s a big difference on the LOS for Iowa vs Purdue.
Well, Purdue actually had an opportunity to watch film and prep for him, so there's that.
boilermakers on every pu jersey is irritating to see. just leave it blank to achieve the same goal
So far Purdue O line and D line can’t match up with Huskies, we crushed Them.
Huskies mush faster at the outset this week after three consecutive slow starts. We'll see if they keep the sled going for a full 60 minutes.
both completely unforced ints
guy was a machine against us
