Official prediction thread

[HUD628]

Big game tomorrow night. It’s only a must win in terms of getting to 6, if you believe at all in that sort of potential outcome for the season. But they can’t go out there and get beaten easily.

OSU obviously wants to run the ball all night, I’m sure they think they can, and I’m sure they will have some success at it. But this won’t be ND running on us, and their QB doesn’t seem like a major threat like we’ve seen with ND, Syracuse, and even the damn Wisconsin QB last year. I think we can slow down the run enough in this game to win.

it’s going to come down to the offense, though. I think Harrell will get Mockobee and Love going in the run game, and things will open up. The front will not be overwhelmed. Edrine and Klare will make plays. If nothing else, we have the better QB, and it will show.

31-20 Boilers, same score as last time vs the beavs, and a nice bound back win on the road.

BTFU

30-21 OSU. We can’t tackle

28 - 24 Beavers ( don't want to use OSU, there's already another OSU in the inflated BIG10)

After last game I am afraid to predict, gotta see how they do this Saturday, before I can try to predict for future games

You either think we are the worst team in P5 or that we might get 4 or 5 wins. Maybe 6 if you’re really optimistic. But there is no I’m afraid. That is not allowed. Make a prediction or delete this post 🤣

27-24 Boilers

Boilers need this one. Purdue wins in a tight game. Card shows game winning leadership. Thieneman plays like a pissed off boiler.

weather is supposed to be mid 70's and sunny w/ 0 % chance of rain at game time

 

[WarrenCoBoiler]

24-10 beavers.

 

[Chi-Boiler]

Spread keeps coming down. Now +2.5 on my site. We all know how much that helped last week.

or in the Neb - Ill game last night

 

[Wolegib]

I predict Illinois will find some offense now that Walters has left and will score 30+ and beat Nebraska.

Illinois is now 4-0 and ranked in the top 25. If you schedule cream puffs and win, you get ranked. If you schedule tough teams and lose, you don’t. Illinois is almost qualified to go to a bowl game. Let that set in.

will beat Neb? they won last night and creampuffs? 2 of their 4 wins were against ranked opponents

And one of them on the road.

Illinois seems to be doing better after shedding Walters

To clarify for you, Walters was the DC, responsible for keeping the opponent from scoring. The OC is the coach responsible for scoring points.

To help you remember this complexity, the D in DC is for defensive, the O in OC is for offensive.

Watching Marshall / Ohio St, don’t understand how teams like Marshall are doing well, not getting pushed around up front, and supposedly in lesser conference .

Coaching, scheme, technique, preparation…

None of which Purdue possesses.

In moments like this, I remember the opening game of the 2004 season. Kyle Orton and Purdue obliterated Syracuse 51-0. Really, Purdue could have named the score that day. They made Syracuse look like a high school team.

Syracuse finished that season 6-6.

The year before that the best Purdue team of my lifetime lost the opener at home to Bowling Green

 

[boiledmeconium]

Beavers 45 Purdue 21

Oregon State runs for 300 yards.

There it's in writing.

But my heart says Boilers 35-21

 

[SunnyFL24]

Why is this spread like last week when we played ND....from 11 down to 7 at kickoff...now we opened +6h down to 2h...am I missing something....24-20 OGST

Absolutely. Nothing is decided. I suspect the 2024 B1G is tougher than the 2004 ACC, but we'll see how Purdue responds.

 

[SunnyFL24]

Card 7-17 for 56 yds...and he's the real deal according to the coaching staff..180 yds total in last 2 games..

Look up moron in the dictionary and there. Is a picture of Harrell.

Time for a change at QB imo.
