Interesting note from yesterday's game. Purdue is now 4-0 in home openers under DH2. Got me wondering how this win compares to the other three.
 
I think this poll reminds me of this years Presidential race because I dont really want either candidate ,but I have to vote for someoneAnyway,yesterdays win is the one I voted for only because its now or never for Coach Darrel..

2013: Just No.
2014:Eh, at least we beat an FBS team.
2015: Okay, but Marshall game made me lose hope.
2016: Most promising a DH team has looked against an FCS team, but Defense looks paper thin against the run.
 
Quite a bit more optimism about the 2016 edition than I would have thought. Not sure I see much difference personally. WMU was certainly the best win of the four.
Regardless, what is illustrated is the absolute lack of stock you can put into the EKU game. The season begins Saturday vs. the Bearcats.
 
It's really hard to say given all four were FCS opponents. I thought Purdue looked really sharp in the 1st and 4th quarters Saturday, but really blah -- even underwhelming -- during the 2nd and 3rd.
