Troll alert.
Would you bet your life on those statements? I'm sure you will say yes.
Beating the Hoosiers just got easier.

LOL. You're calling me a troll? Because of anti-hoosier posts on a Purdue board? If you don't want your feelings hurt, go back to your own board.
Lol! You think those guys couldn't "walk-on" at Tennessee? Wow. I've heard it all. I'm sure Feeney couldn't either. Or Jordan Howard. Or Tevin Coleman.
Those guys aren't good enough to flip my burgers or deliver my pizza, much less walk on at Tennessee.
They are a hell of a lot better than anything that Purdue has. Enjoy your 4-8 season coming up.
LOL. The Hoosiers will spend more time rubbing ICYHOT on grandpa debords achy joints than winning.
Will you guys finally have a winning season and/or win a bowl game this year? 4-8 with our schedule wouldn't be that bad seeing as how that'd be nearly half our wins from the previous 4 years combined.
It's not that they are anti Hoosier, it's that they are irrational.
I'm having fun here. Thank you!
Haha now this I can respect. We still haven't had a winning season (fact). You guys have been terrible the past few years (fact). But at least we are both optimistic for the future!
Nobody can deny this... regardless of performance, both programs have die hard fans.
Gee...with all these glorious renovations to Mackey, Purdue should have been recruiting lights out and won the Big Ten every year, right? Where are the results?
Big upgrades to Ross-Ade in the press box area and the recruits were streaming in, right?
I think Brohm will give you an identity on offense. We'll see if the talent level can carry that out. But, as any good Hoosier fan knows all to well, a prolific offense won't get you far in this conference if your defense is Swiss cheese.....and Purdue has fallen into the same hole IU was in to that regard. You cannot win in conference with a piss poor defense.
Allen may not be the answer but I sure like the start and the focus on stabilizing the defense is the core of any success. IU tried that prolific offense-but-ignore-the-defense philosophy and it doesn't work.
Why the consistent jabs at Mike Debord? The guy is 60 years old. Nick Saban is 65. Bill Snyder is 77. Debord just had a very good season as an OC.
The point is, why can't a team be great on offense AND have a good to great defense? Tiller used this recipe to great success when he had Jim Chaney as OC and Brock Spack as the DC. If you'll recall, Purdue bitchslapped IU 10 times in 12 years under Tiller. One of those losses was the 2007 "win one for the memory of Terry Hoeppner" game where Purdue was sleepwalking for 3 quarters and then came storming back, only to have IU kick a last second FG for the win.
Mike DeBord will get quickly solved by BIG DCs and IU's offense will absolutely take a big step backwards vs. Wilson's teams.
When IU fields a team with a winning record in a season let me know. When IU wins a bowl game let me know. When IU actually beats teams like OSU and Michigan let me know. When IU wins a league championship let me know. When IU makes the Rose Bowl or any New Years Day bowl game let me know.
All the Loosier bluster about how great IU football is just that - bluster. IU had one of its better runs in football in many years and still didn't win a bowl game, didn't have a winning record, didn't beat any of the ranked power teams in the conference, didn't win a league championship (didn't sniff one actually)...
IU football is going to go down, not up, under Allen. IU won't win trying to use the Wisconsin or Iowa method. Ground and pound, time of possession, don't turn the ball over, play great defense...
...and the other loss was in 2001, when IU beat a Purdue team in transition (right after the Rose Bowl year), in a torrential rain (anyone worth his salt will tell you adverse weather levels the playing field) in which IU barely won.
Yup. Antwuan Randle-El at QB and the game was at IU. Purdue lost 13-7 in horrible playing conditions.
First half was a total deluge. Closest I ever came to punching a drunk college student. He mouthed off. I stood up and he suddenly realized he was a drunk college student and I was a large grown man. He shook my hand and walked away. My IU friends still talk about it.
Uhhh, I know you're a Hoosier, but DeBord does not belong in the same sentence as Saban.
Why make lame excuses for something that happened 15 yrs ago?
Those 10 wins Purdue had, (insert excuse to legitimize why IU lost).
I was at that '07 game. Greatest game in the history of the series. The only game that ever mattered. And Purdue lost.
psssssssttt...... you just did the same thing.
Age is merely a point of reference. 60 is the new 50.
No, the win the clinched the Rose Bowl berth was the greatest game of the series. And Purdue won. I was there.
Right. How about the game where Rod Woodson played RB, WR, DB, KR, and PR and Purdue beat IU to knock them out of a bowl game in 1984? There are a number of great games in the series, including a few in the '60s, so the one in 2007 barely makes the Top 5.
I wasn't comparing them. I'm just saying that turning 60 doesn't mean that you all of a sudden turn into an idiot. This guy just ran a good offense this year that had multiple games over 40 pts this season.
Grandpa isn't an idiot. He's just old. Don't have any sense of respect for your ancestors?
There are no excuses, it's just the facts, ma'am. Purdue had an awesome run, and there were two games IU had to pull a win out of their arse.
Don't like it? I don't blame you!
When he torches Nick Holts defense this year, I hope you leave Rivals. For good.
Again, you do know this is a Purdue board, not a general or Loosiers board.
So since pretty much everyone here is in agreement that IU sucks, you either deal with that IU will forever suck and pro Purdue post or move on.

With TN's players. IU doesn't have that kind of talent and to say otherwise is just laughable.
Bump for idiotic wakeman and fkfootball posts.
Was there as well....great game! Stayed at the same hotel those Loosiers stayed. I will say Randle El was a nice kid was shocked how little he was. This argument isn't serious enough to fight. We have better facilities, coaches and overall recruits. We're are just flat out better.
Aged so well Markell Jones ran for ANOTHER first down, after IU punted because they completed a 4 yard pass on 3rd and 7.
And dragged Marcelino Ball 10 yards for a touchdown.
