Ohio State - Purdue Game Discussion Thread

The punter!

 

[Beorik]

Is it just me or does down and distance not seem to matter to O’Connell? I believe he would step up and complete a 42 yard pass on 3rd and 40.

Nice play to Horvath on the swinger.

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

wow another score ... wish the D had anything today

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

Td!!!!!

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

This game seems like it's timed with a Sundial.

Anthrop scores! Boilers break 30.....could this be a Bad Beat game?

 

[boilermaker75]

"Never, never, never give up!"

 

[boilermaker75]

Come on D, three and out!

may see an onside kick after one of these scores.

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

This is where we need a turnover

I'd settle for another punt

not only is AOC having a great game but the OL has been pretty good.

Agreed
Announcer going nuts over OSUs 513 yds of offense.
Uh, Purdue has 430 itself.

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

At least, we stopped them once on defense I guess. Wow, 59 points.

 

[Roeder]

At this point do you just see how bad you can make their D look? Let's go for 50, lol

 

[pu1985]

AOC: 35/43, 348, 4, and 0
Stroud: 30/37, 357, 5, and 0

Stats are pretty even, but you wouldn't know it from the tv crew.

Two fumbles are the only difference in how these two teams have played to this point. Proud of the fight from the offense. Need the defense to find a way to get some stops or turnovers.

thankfully they called a TO there,

hats off to the O tonight

That shank punt was basically a TO too. Gave them the ball at Purdue's 40 on their first possession.

Yep forgot about that.

Bell with another 100 yard game. He is amazing.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

David Bell.....another 100yd game - the biggest stat is that Ohio State has scored on all but one possessions, IIRC.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

That's when you know it's not your day - Bell drops a sure TD on 4th down. Ouch.

 

[bonefish1]

Oh man. Bad drop by Bell. Great throw from AOC.

 

[gbl97]

Pass protection has been fantastic. O'Connell as well.

can;t believe he dropped a perfectly thrown pass

 

[boilermaker75]

If Bell is going to drop a TD, it might as well be in a game we are not going to win even if he caught it.

 

[purdueplayer]

The pass to anthrop between three guys was really good

 

[PaBoiler78]

Oh man. Bad drop by Bell. Great throw from AOC.

would have liked to see the onside kick after too.

 

[purdueplayer]

The way this day is going they would get a bounce and run it in

 

[Beorik]

This is a loss. I think most of us have been around long enough to know many Purdue teams that would have folded early after a couple mistakes and lost to a team like this by 50. I hate to lose but proud of our fight specifically on offense. Love this team. Boiler Up!

for crissakes, can't even tackle on basic run plays

 

[Beorik]

Yeah… unfortunately not a ton of fight from the defense today.

 

[SIBoiler2]

Thankfully neither NW or IU have either speed or athleticism that we're up against today.

classy move by Day , taking a knee w/ over a minute left in game.

Eh I guess…since he still had his starters playing up 28 late in the 4th…

I want, and think, we can do to a number on both NW and Indinia. 30+ point wins.

Last drive was mostly runs and had backup RB, TEs (one walkon), 2 WRs and 2-3 OL.

 

[jgranate]

I'm disappointed but not surprised in the outcome. The talent differential was evident.

The only thing I'm "angry" about, because I don't get angry about sports anymore, was the boneheaded decision to switch qbs and fumble.

I'm sure he'll own it, but when coaches say the team will need a perfect game to win, that includes the coaches as well.

Proud of the offense though!
