Game Thread: Purdue @ Michigan State

[arcb102000]

That pass in the end zone where Blough missed Moore really hurts about now.. Plus,the DBs are really looking bad. Lack of pass rush is also obvious.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Goodness gracious.

 

[pu1985]

Flat city...sigh

This is an inexcusable effort. Pittman takes Purdue out of field goal range. Pathetic.

 

[ahhculdee]

Awful effort. We are letting Michigan State control the game.

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

I hope Brohm throws 2 to 3 chairs at halftime

 

[JohnnyDoeBoiler]

Ohio State must really suck. Even patchwork WRs and 2nd-string QB starting his first game having easy success against the secondary.

MSU had 97 yards last weekend.

Different game plan for Purdue this week. I think they expected MSU to run and run and instead MSU is throwing it around.

A big adjustment needs to be made

 

[bonefish1]

Disagree. Our D isn’t fine today.

Yeh, that was a bad defensive series. Lombardi way too comfortable and playing with confidence. Holt needs to make some adjustments.

 

[BoilerBulldog]

Did Spencer make the FG he kicked after the penalty was called? Just curious how much of a killer that false start was.

 

[purdueplayer]

I want a goddamn explanation on why we gave the cushion that we did when they are starting a freshman with no experience. Awful defensive play calling

 

[BoilerBulldog]

Let’s see what the staff can do at half. This game is far from over.

 

[IndySouthsider]

We really look like week 1-3 Purdue

Having the ball on the 3 and not punching it in hurts too.

 

[ahhculdee]

13-6 feels like infinity because we allow MSU to get short 3rd down conversions. Somebody step up.

Inexperienced QB. Likely hoping he makes bad throws and Purdue, sitting far off, can make plays on those and get turnovers.

Clearly, that isn’t going to happen as he making the correct read and making throws.

MSU has a HISTORICALLY bad Run Offense this year. Their leading rusher has like 200 yards on the season.

If Holt expected MSU to try to come in and pound the ball, he doesn’t watch much film.

He is head and shoulders better than Lewerke.

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

He is head and shoulders better than Lewerke.

I think our defense is making him look better

 

[IndySouthsider]

We in deep deep trouble. Think MSU found their QB and could win out

 

[IndySouthsider]

Jesus Christ. Tackle!!!!

 

[purduepat1969]

They score a TD here and game over

 

[IndySouthsider]

They score a TD here and game over

We can’t stop them. We can’t score on them. I expected a lot more than they put on the field today.


Boilerup

 

[purduepat1969]

Well, that was a delayed whistle.

 

[JohnnyDoeBoiler]

Purdue needs to dial up the blitzes and bring one or two more to make Lombardi throw out of rhythm

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

It needs to be Moore on offense, Moore on offense, etc

 

[purduepat1969]

Nice coverage on the TE.

 

[IndySouthsider]

This defensive game plan they worked on. Please scrap it and throw it away.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Just getting out-hustled and beaten up front. And a step slow on defense.

I'm not totally shocked with an inconsistent game....these are the steps a building team has to take.....still disappointing with the way the division race is shaping up.

Hold them here and get a score Boilers. A TD for Michigan State, and the Boilers will be in a big hole they may not be able to dig out from.

 

[purduepat1969]

Lombardi looks like a superstar...

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

That just shows you put pressure on him and he does not look as strong

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

Nice block Neal!

 

[BoilerinPA]

That block was big.

 

[IndySouthsider]

That was a dumb play after the kick.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

OK, Boilers......still a one score game. Do something with this drive please.

and then.......good gawd......down it on the one?

 

[purduepat1969]

And of course we start celebrating and don't pick up the FB. WTF???

 

[Dennis H.]

Jeesh

 

[IndySouthsider]

Guess the kids don’t remember Leon Lett

And of course we start celebrating and don't pick up the FB. WTF???

No we did that’s the problem. Kid didn’t know MSU couldn’t advance

 

[purduepat1969]

That was a dumb play after the kick.

Dumb doesn't begin to describe it. Who in the h&ll doesn't go after the football after the block when it's still in the field of play?????

 

[purduepat1969]

Take Blough out of the game. Please.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Schopper? You're up.
