Illini vs PURDUE Game thread

Maybe Purdue/Brohm could be "more aggressive" and line up to punt on 3rd down rather than consistently run/attempt plays short of the sticks...they could do a fake punt out of the formation and it would then constitute "being aggressive".
 
What in the h e double hockey sticks is Plummer doing???
That pass he attempted on 3rd and 9 into that coverage reeked of desperation. As conservative as he has been, I’m sure we’ve had receivers with way better looks all throughout this first half. He’s just off today, it’s clear. Hope Brohm realizes this sooner than later.

The OL has given him the yips. Get Burton in there to at least create something out of nothing.
The OL should give EVERYONE the yips...it is truly embarrassing to be as bad as they are. Guys are better off missing assignments...they don't look nearly as bad as just getting run over or run by otherwise.

they get 3 and the ball to start the 2nd half.
 
Brohm better change things up or we are ripe to get beat. Put the pedal down and quit playing to the level of competition

It is getting "later" as Purdue is almost a half in, went ultra conservative twice deep in the red zone, and, is holding on for dear life to a 6-3 lead against a far less than stellar Illinois team.

Plummer is off and playing poorly...play calling has been poor...but, all of it fairly irrelevant in that the OL can't block its own shadow.

So this team has absolutely dominated the game, especially on D. And this offense can't do better than 6 points at this point??
Nobody would’ve expected this statement this year. I think we all expected a “better” defense this year but man, I’ve really enjoyed watching them this year. When’s the last time someone has said that about a Purdue team’s D? Kudos to those guys and what they’ve demonstrated through 3.5 games this year.
