Purdue Postgame Party...

[TheHaze315]

What thread was the podcast of the Purdue guys talking about how we didn’t have a chance in?

 

[UpstateSM]

Holy chit the Clemson game is going to be an absolute war. Those defenses battling is going to be incredible. Shrader is going to need to be special.

I think that's the most excited I've ever been for a game in the Dome.

 

[SU91]

Worst

Yes. Autocorrect. Thank you.

We’re a good football team. Gotta keep Shrader healthy, if that happens this team has 9-10 win potential. Purdue isn’t great but they are tough at home in Primetime and we beat them by 15. Freaking Alabama only beat USF by 14. I hope Jones is ok, he’s our most reliable WR, even with the drops we have a deep corp of WRs with a lot of potential, however. Love our D, love Beck and Rocky. Great coaching staffs matter. A lot.

 

[Scotch]

The small but mighty visiting Orange contingent cheered their A$$ES off tonight. I was honored to be part of that crew that was pissing so many Purdue fans off.

They. Could. Not. Run. Against. Us. Incredible performance by the defense tonight.

What a win!

Alright, run an inside slant then.

We were at the Purdue 41 with 4th and 11. Purdue is going to have a greater shot at scoring from the ~30 yard line than from the endzone.

Have confidence in your QB. If it’s not open, then heave it deep or scramble around and burn the last seconds of the half. Many options that were better than what we did.

If he isn’t ACC QB of the week, we should burn it all down

The difference is incredibly trivial vs the upside. But alright, run on every 3rd&8 ever then cause something bad could happen.

It's not only on the QB. Tipped INT's and strip sacks happen also.

Even if we don't turn it over on the play, Purdue has the ball at the 30-41 yard line (depending on how many yards we gained, if any, on the 4th down play.) They have an opportunity to score if they have the ball, albeit a small percentage. You also have to factor in a blocked kick if we do pick up the first.

Hail Mary means if anyone scores, it's probably us. 99% of the time, it's probably incomplete if the ball ends up in the air or we bury the play like Shrader did.

Ah, I see who I'm talking to now. You're one of those guys that obviously forgot how GRob's quick kick on 3rd downs changed the landscape of college football.

 

[The Viking]

Watched them against UTSA Friday. QB is not a great thrower but, they can run. Won;t be a cakewalk.

I hope we sell out for Army. I've never heard a louder group of fans in any stadium.
Ever.

 

[BuffOrange]

No Im one of those guys that follows basic risk/reward. You're there guy who doesn't double 11 vs a 6 cause you drew an Ace last time.

 

[C Bomb]

Going back a ways, the Hogue/Derrell Smith combo was fun to watch. That game where we just terrorized Rutgers offense in the Dome was amazing fun to watch.

I think Ray Lucas is still complaining about the late game blitzes on their radio feed

 

[Reyes39]

No Im one of those guys that follows basic risk/reward. You're there guy who doesn't double 11 vs a 6 cause you drew an Ace last time.

Purdue can't score without the ball. A Hail Mary only gives them the ability to do so on a 100 yard pick six. Pretty rare. Any other option increases the chances that Purdue gains possession or scores defensively.

Might want to double check your risk/reward data sheet. Because I can't see the risk being worth it for 3 points in a game we're leading by 7 on the road with a kicker we haven't seen hit a FG longer than 36 yards.

Some of those “drops” would have been all world contested catches. It wasn’t like Shrader was dropping dimes all night on deep balls.

Some of them were difficult catches, some of them were drops.

We’re not forcing 5 turnovers every game and in closer games basic fundamentals like catching the ball will make a difference.

Fresno State is putting it on ASU.

 

[anomander]

Clark throws himself around, too, so Farmer is most likely going to HAVE to be a big piece of the defense at some point.

i think quite the opposite and clark is outstanding

 

[dollarbill44]

Yeah. I didn't see an SU player control the ball. When they unpiled Purdue guy had it.

Um, no. When they unpiled, Johnson was lying on his back with the ball in his hands.

 

[SUfaninAZ]

I went to the first two games, ASU might not win another game all year.

Good lord talk about setting the tone for his time here. i tried to erase those years from my mind but wasn’t that in his first game in the dome

 

[UpstateSM]

I said the same thing in this thread. I think he's been under appreciated

The post you quoted just meant that he likes to hit so it won't be surprising if he misses a little time.

 

[kuethstheman]

Um, no. When they unpiled, Johnson was lying on his back with the ball in his hands.

Quite right. I was supposing but watched the replay and I was wrong. However, between the shot of 77 jumping on the pile and Johnson being the last one in the pile, a lot was off camera, so who knows. Replay was definitely inconclusive, so if they'd ruled it for SU on the field, that would have stood.

 

[shu 49]

I still think the play of the game was that 3rd and 11 when Purdue had all the momentum and we connected on that 35 yard pass. If we don't make that, it's possible we don't win the game.

Play .of game was stop in beginning when They were gonna score
