Purdue fan commentary

I've heard the run d is a problem for you all. We will see how things play out.
It is a major problem. No one to set the edge with Jenkins at ILB and scourton leaving the coaches high and dry. Issue is outside of Karlaftis, all the other ILB’ers are hurt. OLB and ILB is in rough shape.
 
I mean, no one really knows if PU's pass D is good or bad. Teams don't bother passing against them, there is no need.
It’s a fair point. Like I said, get #1 CB back for this game and Purdue seems to rush the passer fairly well again.
 
Isn't your Qb a true frosh? Has he played on the road yet?
Despite the P team not giving the fans much to get excited about, they still show up. The P fans would love to see what P does if they could get a lead in a game instead constantly digging out of a hole. Would be interesting to see how your QB responds playing from behind in a hostile environment.
Agreed....but does Purdue count as a hostile environment? It'll be 1/3 Nebraska fans....
 
Didn’t realize the pass D was bad. Pass rush and pass D have yet to prove their are bad. Maybe they are. Idk. Also get their #1 CB back for the game. The run D is the issue. Not the pass.
That’s fine to assume Nebraska doesn’t have good passing QB and a couple of speed burners at WR
 
I’m revered on the PU board, well respected for my political commentary.
you are a douchebag GIF
 
The problem I see is whoever plays Nebraska their QB usually seems to put it all together and looks like an all American it most likely a combination of good game prep, good schemes, and our corners playing 5-10 yards off the line. With that we always leave the underneath routs especially quick slants wide open. Once an offense gets in a rhythm against us the fragile minds kick in and the collective thought of here we go again kicks in.

With that said I do think we have a coach that is trying to fix that mindset, but given what I’ve seen the past two weeks this game will be more of a pillow fight with the game being much closer than it should be.

I’ll go 21-13 huskers

Stop telling them our secrets.

The last 15 years or so have proven one thing about NU. We can find just about any way possible to lose a game, even the ones that on paper we have no business losing.

I think we have the right coach and the right young players. With that said there is still a lot of fragile psychies on this team. A tight game or a few bad mistakes can sink the Husker ship very quickly.

I have to go with the Huskers but would not be shocked if its close.

NU 28
PU 17
I agree. Really want to see us three years from when the fragile psychies and the losing culture have all but moved on. SF absolutely f’d this program up. Anybody that hires that idiot should just pay him in beer and Skoal bandits unless they just like pissing money down the toilet!
