This is the type of team we dominate in the 2nd half.

If you get the two you are only down three points. Now you are down four. If you don’t get it you are down five. What’s the difference between four and five points?

I hope your right!

Did you want a play action fade route?

Prefer a 220 back running.

 

[mrolympia]

DBs and tackling were awful in the first half. We have to expect bad stanley to show up every game

 

[BigD]

Fortunate that it is this close with the way Stanley isn’t rolleyes throwing the ball.

LMAO!!!!!’ That was suppose to say “Fortunate that it is this close with the way Stanley isn’t throwing the ball.

Imagine what this team would be like with a QB like the ones they play defense against?

Michigan is controlling Penn State.

Thanks to the Purdue strength and conditioning coach for keeping us in the game. Now it's up to the defense.

The difference is if you get a TD your are guaranteed to be up by 3 as long as you make the extra point.

Iowa needs to show more than 4 on D and make the QB nervous. Throws to the TEs would be easy on 1st down - but ... Stanley is throwing harder than Jake right now

Anybody's game now

We seem to have taken Moore out of the game a bit

Lads settled down

Didn't really have an idea how this game would be and being down 4 points at Purdue is OK

They are not playing the buckeyes this game

Iowa is definitely taking the momentum in this one. They should be up 17-14 since there was obvious offensive PI on the last purdont TD. Iowa gets the ball to start the second half, and will go on a nice long TD drive to take the lead for good. Iowa is clearly the better team, purdont has simply benefited from some poor officiating thus far. Also on the play prior to one of the other TDs, what looked to be a completion and fumble was called incomplete, and it should have been reviewed and overturned.

 

[proudhawkfan21]

We score a TD now its 24-21, up a fg. Miss the 2 pt conversation and a fg puts purdue ahead 24-23. Assuming another Iowa TD and Purdue fg.

 

[proudhawkfan21]

Oops. Replied to the wrong post.

 

[archiehawk]

If we rely on stanley to play well enough to win this game we are screwed. D is going to have to step up along with the OL.

Just be glad Brohm put us in a position to be debating this in the first place.

Thanks coach.
