First-half thread for NU vs. Purdue

[jensberg]

The sideways run hasn't been the best play this year. Lots of times I think if they just got N and S sooner they would get a couple of yards ala JJ

Agree we haven't had much success with wide receiver sweeps

 

[IAWildcat79]

Did Lees lose track of where he was there? That punt hit around the 12-13 yard line.

 

[zbag51]

D looking good. Let’s flush that last drive on offense, get some more momentum here with a long drive

 

[TheC]

Not a great play by Lee’s. He could have fair caught that outside the 10

 

[Deeringfish]

So AJ Hampton is a senior from Arkansas and it is Riley Lease not Riley Lee’s. This announcer is a joke

It's Lees, check the roster

 

[Rodenthater]

Crap blocking!

 

[jensberg]

Offensive line getting no push at all

 

[zbag51]

D looking good. Let’s flush that last drive on offense, get some more momentum here with a long drive

Or not...

 

[Rodenthater]

Shows you we don’t have any deep threats!

 

[TheC]

Yikes... awful series.

 

[Deeringfish]

Newsome is a tackling animal

 

[TheC]

Heck of a tackle by Newsome!

 

[Figrating]

Good D again

 

[scru]

Offense needs to show up here now.

 

[TheC]

Our D is just doing such a great job. Holding them to 3 after that starting field position was huge.

 

[IAWildcat79]

Spacing concept for a first down there..nicely executed.

 

[Deeringfish]

I ike passing on first down

 

[Catslash]

Throw the ******** ball

 

[NU Houston]

It would be good to see the d-line get more pressure on the QB.

 

[GECat2]

Argeed. Throw the ball. You have all day.

 

[Deeringfish]

Throw the ******** ball

They are really expecting us to run. Gotta mix it up more

Did you listen to the Illinois game? The female announcer was the worst I’ve ever heard.

 

[Deeringfish]

That throw to Kirtz was the fastest he has thrown all year

I took the advice from prior games and am enjoying Dave Eanet.

 

[IAWildcat79]

Great blitz pickup by Anderson on the 3rd down play

 

[Rodenthater]

What Illinois?

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

Who was saying they can't defend the run?

 

[NU Houston]

Nice catch by Kirtz. Clutch play on 3rd down.

 

[NorthwesternSeasider]

Is Brandon Joseph out today?

 

[TerraCat]

If Anderson doesn’t have a lane he gets blown up. Where is Bowser? Great kick by Kuhbander! Career long!

 

[Deeringfish]

That was an important FG. Capped off a good drive and pu the lead back to a TD

 

[IAWildcat79]

Is Brandon Joseph out today?

No...Newsome made the tackle but Joseph made the play (I think) on that reverse Purdue ran earlier.

 

[stpaulcat]

Is Bowser out again?

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

KUHBANDER!

 

[Hungry Jack]

That 55 LB on Purdue will play in the NFL

 

[NU Houston]

Nice kick! Career long for Kuhbander.

 

[TheC]

Is Brandon Joseph out today?

I didn’t think so. He made a great tackle earlier on a well designed WR screen.

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

Is Bowser out again?

Well, he played in the first quarter.

 

[Deeringfish]

If Anderson doesn’t have a lane he gets blown up. Where is Bowser? Great kick by Kuhbander! Career long!

Bowser gets too beat up to play every down. He is not JJ

 

[scru]

Seem to be a bit confused in the running game right now. Purdue keying on it for sure. Still, we are getting an initial push, but keep running slower developing plays. I'd run right at them up the left side.
