[pboiler18]

The one that shows up ready to play on defense, yet doesn't generate any points.

So it is a) for you!

 

[SIBoiler2]

I've got B.

 

[PaBoiler78]

I've got B.

I'll go w/ A) although for the first quarter, then something bad will happen to our squad to give them an excuse to pack it in.

 

[Summy1]

I got to go with B. I really don't think this will be a game. If we some how beat Iowa just think how bad it will look for the Big Ten.

 

[threeeputtt]

Flat out bad beat, more physically than points. Ferentz won't want to risk injuries. Makes no difference on "style" points because if you go 13-0 you are in.

e) none of the above - We are in it going into the 4Q and lose it by not scoring.

Can someone remind me why is it that Iowa is a hated rival? I personally don't even consider Iowa until they come up on schedule. Just another team to me. Maybe it is cause ALL my hatred is for IU. POTFH!

 

[uncleboiler]

Hopefully the 2003 team

Seems plausible based on this year.

They were our protected cross division rival in the old division setup, only because we were there last two schools not to get paired up.

Call me a big fat fool but I think "decent" Purdue shows up. I am a huge Blough fan boy and I think the guy is a really good QB. I think he is going to have a stellar game this week and the defense shows up due to only having to be on the field a reasonable amount of time. I think the game will come down to the last 5 minutes and which ever offense can get a deciding score and/or which defense can make a stop.

I'm feeling froggy: Purdue 36 Iowa 30

PU will not score 36 points. If we win the defense will have to hold them to 14 or under. Disinterested Iowa beats us 27-10. Yes we attempt and make a FG. I am feeling froggy also. Another moral victory and progress as we don't lose by 40.

Iowa's defense is nothing to write home about and they play a zone which is the type of defense Purdue has had some success against. I think we score at least in the low 20's.

 

[Redhotfill]

Maybe we will have some kind of chance if 8" of snow falls during the game with the winter weather advisory, and Iowa muffs a kick off in the endzone. Weather can be an equalizer. Whoa I need to lay off the Cool Aid, Oh Yeah!

That would be c.

The only way we make a FG is if it's a white out and Griggs can't see the goal posts so his aim can't be its' normal lazer guidance system.

We suck. There is only one team. One coach. We suck

 

[OneHawk91]

Delaney made our rivalry "Legendary" back in the first divisions were set. We need some sort of trophy to go along with it.

 

[New Pal Boiler]

a) The one that plays well in the first half but makes no halftime adjustments to stay in the game

b ) Gets blown out in the first half and makes no halftime adjustments to get back in the game

c) Stays in the game till the end and wins or loses at the end

Down 35-10 late, but we score a meaningless touchdown late to achieve a perfect 4-0 record ATS in B1G road games this year.
