Ohio St. Buckeyes at Purdue Boilermakers, Oct 17, 2009 12:00 PM EDT


It's time to put up or shut up in Ohio State's second conference road outing. On paper, this game shouldn't be close. If history is any indication, it will be. If the defense is anything less than dominant today, I'll be a bit perplexed. If the offense is anything more than competent today, I'll be very pleased. We should know fairly early on whether Pryor really took anything to heart watching his technique (or lack thereof) this week against Wisconsin. How long any possible aerial assault will last will probably depend on the weather; it isn't expected to get above 50 in West Lafayette. Regardless, the offense should roll, but I'd feel stupid offering up any guarantees. Go Bucks!

Purdue’s defense is really bad. Their offense turns the ball over a ton. I don’t buy that past Purdue-OSU games have any bearing on today. They have a different defensive coordinator. We have a different team.

45-6. Buckeyes.

Hopefully you’re right. The only thing that gets me a bit worried is that they managed to hang with Oregon and Notre Dame.

In fairness, ND's defense is turrible

The Oregon game was impressive though; the Ducks rank 15th in total D.

It's a little shocking to me that Pryor has a 56 percent completion percentage

and nearly 1000 yards through the air. The latter especially.

I really don’t think it’ll hurt him in the draft that much. There is way too much time between now and the draft for him to make up for it.

Even if it did hurt his draft stock, if it was anything significant he could just stay another year. He’s only a RS junior.

I’ve NEVER understood the “Overrated!” chant. Especially for the underdogs, but really chanting it ever. All chanting “overrated” really does is take away from the team who is chanting it. It means you didn’t have to be that good to beat us. Your potential win is less impressive. It’s stupid. The better the opponent that your upsetting, the better it makes you. It’s the same reason all the players and coaches talk about how good the opposing team was, they beater they had to be to beat them. Some fans really have no logic at all.

Perhaps. But as Purdue fans why admit they’re team didn’t have to be good to win, it’s just that we are not as good. Might as well chant:
“We didn’t have to do that much!!”
“Our win isn’t as impressive!!”
“This doesn’t say much good about our team!!”

The QB situation could be VERY sad in the future if Terrelle doesn’t improve A LOT. Which will lead to a sadder situation for the whole offense. Recruiting a Clarette style freshman RB is only hope for the next two seasons I think.

That actually makes some sense though. Yes, we still need two TDs, but we don’t need two 2-pt conversions for the tie. Two TDs will now win it (though I have no faith in us actually getting them)

I think you try for the TD inside the 5, then if you don’t make the 2 pointer maybe you can kick a longer FG later.
