It’s just Illinois, but I love how this team is playing right now. And OSU looked vulnerable today.
Bring on the Buckeyes!!!

Put the brakes on skippy. This was a good performance today against the bottom of the B1G. Ohio State's talent will be on full display next week after the Minnesota game.
nothing at all wrong with being excited about the opportunity.
And why not! Boilers playing with nothing to lose in this one, playing their best ball right now. Lay it all out there with confidence and let the chips fall where they may.
Figured it would be on full display against Minnesota after their performance against IU.
Won't get many fair calls because the B1G will want to get OSU into the playoffs. Fact of life.....
Shamelessly stolen from the CFB subreddit.
At least we have our inadequate medical facilities in our favor.
Any guesses on what the early spread on next weeks game will be? I’ll pick OSU-10.5
What’s this mean?
Does “false confidence” mean “no confidence”?
Did the team have false confidence against Michigan, meaning they weren’t confident?
Or did they have confidence, which led to our downfall?
Is confidence bad?
Sounds about right, maybe a bit higher. Would have been in the 30 range a few weeks ago!
This year, We could play a perfect game against OSU, outcoach them dramatically, and still lose by 20.
We will need to hope for mistakes by OSU.
We Need another year or two of de-Hazelling of the roster, unfortunately.

Solid reasoning. You’ve changed my mind. Boilers by 20 +.
No confidence isn't bad. For UM last year, I think the team was perhaps over-confident and hence under-prepared. This was due to the surprising rout at Mizzou.
Don't do that. Your original post certainly wasn't something to change someone's mind. What you posted was just silly.
One possible small break for Purdue: this will be Ohio State's 8th game in 8 weeks. It's hard to believe their regular season will be 2/3 complete by midnight Saturday.
That said, I'm sure Urban Meyer will have them on upset alert, especially considering their loss at Iowa last year probably kept them out of the playoff.

Thanks for the post.Come back again this week if you can and let us know how things are in CBus.
Yesterday's game is exactly what prompted my, "Oh, goodness, no" response to your post. This is not an "I told you so."
Did I expect to win by 20? Or 29? Oh, goodness, NO! But, I did expect to compete. Anyone who's been watching Brohm's teams can attest, we can never be counted out.
Enjoy your week, Pitt.
