Watching the Fighting PJ Flecks vs. Maryland.
Not seeing a bunch of flair and innovation from Minnesota. Lots of simple line up and try to out muscle a team. Trying to watch the blocking schemes up front but in the few plays I have been able to watch closely (as I am grading in my classroom), not seeing a lot of pulling or trapping and lots of zone blocking. Purdue has a definite chance to win next week if they can hold up with Bentley and Thienneman out for the first half. The bye week comes at a good time to get some guys healthy and plan accordingly for the upcoming weeks after getting exposed a bit against UM.
