WHO CALLED THAT TIMEOUT, AND WHY??!??!??!

Purdue played better than I expected, and ND played better than last week. I thought the score on both sides would be higher.

I like that Weis is throwing in some Wildcat offense for flavor.

Purdue is awful this year.
ND had to convert a last minute drive to beat them.
ND is one play from being 4-0, and yet only 2 plays from being 1-3.
If only every year could be a weak schedule for the Irish, then maybe they would be able to eventually reclaim the 2nd spot in all-time wins.

I'll just stand here in the corner and draw circles in the floor with my toe, as I have nothing meaningful to contribute to this conversation.

Unless the Spartans beat Michigan this weekend. Then watch it, merc. tongue

Purdue had the number 2 rusher in the country and ND managed to stuff him. That I was impressed with.

The rest of your quote makes me sad because it's so true. I hope you can find some joy in my pain.

Spartans are tough, but can they finish the game. That's what hurting them this year. ND went through that the last two seasons.

At least MSU is still keeping the games close, I think they've only been "blown out" once since Dantonio arrived. If you stay close, you always have a chance to win late. So that's something. laugh

I wonder if Alridge and Allen will be back in time to play against USC?

Was Allen hurt again? I saw him in the Wash. game and I saw him come out, but without the TV commentary, I didn't know the details.

Another thing that sucks about seeing games live is the lack of instant replay.
