Purdue is ranked #25
- Thread starter NUCat320
- Start date
Karlaftis vs Skoronski
Will be a great matchup that sets the tone for the game.
young heard or Mitchell vs Bell with BoJo in support. Thank goodness they are suffering from depleted and injured RB depth so they are more one dimensional on offense.
looking forward to this one - and really all the rest of the games this season now that the D (and Dline especially) has its mojo back!

It looks like there's going to be an epic battle in the Sun Bowl between UTSA and UTEP (6-1) to determine the division.
I'll bet nobody predicted that.
Purdue has a brutal guantlet of games before we play them. Hopefully this will be game where we wrap up the West. 
I don't know if they are very good, but they looked dominant against Iowa. Maybe it was mostly Bell, maybe just a perfect storm for Iowa, but just trusting my eyes, they looked good. By the way, Iowa's DB expected to play on Sundays got torched by Bell, while we saw what Newsome did to Bell last year. Impressive.
Purdue has looked way, way better than NU this season. I think Horvath might be back by then as well. It's going to be another very bad game in Wrigley for those NU supporters who don't mind watching football in that place (upgraded from dump). They're going to kill us.
I don't think he has the jets to be a high round pick, but he's certainly outstanding in college and may be an excellent #3 WR in the NFL
They are 2-1 in the division, we are 0-1. They are 4-2 overall, while we are 3-3, while playing a weaker schedule thus far. That is why they are ranked and we are not. Can we beat them? Of course, but right now they deserve the ranking. From what we have witnessed from the Cats thus far the Cats- Boilermakers game will be a toss up with maybe a slight advantage to Purdue. We are trending upward, but based off of one game. How we play against Michigan will be a great gauge as to what we can expect when we start divisional play. The improvement we saw with Rutgers was a great shot in the arm for the team and of course us fans, but I want to see consecutive weeks of improvement before I will talk division championship. Until then I do not see how we can talk down any divisional opponent. The parity in the West makes the chase all the more fun to watch.
Because he was a Sophomore last season and a Junior this season. NFL rules won't let him go until after this season
Are you serious?The Cats must play Michigan,Minnesota,Iowa and Wisconsin before Purdue.Thats a pretty tough four game stretch also.Purdue has a brutal guantlet of games before we play them. Hopefully this will be game where we wrap up the West.
Man, you’re weird. I don’t think Northwestern is good. I also don’t think Purdue is good. This is based mostly on the fact that Purdue has been mostly bad recently. Iowa was a tremendous upset — I just was surprised it got Purdue into the top 25.
How’s Brady Brohm doing these days?
Lol, you came onto our board last year like this:
and now you come out like a big swinging dick insulting our fans on our board because you guys are ranked #25 and we're having a rough start to the season after winning the division last year. Take too many hits to the head last year?
Well, the last time we played at Wrigley, we had just lost our QB (Persa).
Hopefully, this next time, we'll have our QB returning (Marty).
Keep Hilinski in. The guy is the future and doing rather well. That will gave a positive effect on recruiting for '23.
