Purdue Postgame Party...

[XC Cuse]

What championship game?

Natty here we come!

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

We won by 15 on the road, at night to a good big ten team in our first P5 game of the year and thats your post?

Could have been 29: missed PI in the endzone before the sack/missed FG and QB1 going down on the last possession when he had a TD

 

[OrangeDW]

Agreed . I’d add Bill Hurley to your list.

Nassib had a heck of a senior year too.

 

[Scooch]

Or an agenda on the first B10 prime time game on a new NBC TV deal. So satisfying.

Why would an ACC crew have any interest in helping the B1G and NBC?

Refs just aren’t good.

 

[SU91]

Oline held up. Good sign. Lots of questions still, but nice win. Kicking a bit of a concern. Not punting (despite the shanks). Place kicking. Can we have accuracy outside of 30 yards? WRs will probably be what they are they year. Potentially good, but inconsistent. We’ll probably have to live with it. If we had OG we win that game by 28. Shader is obviously a monster and I love him, but the combo of his throws and our WRs is scary as hell sometimes. I hold my breath when the ball is in the air, but no way I’m questioning Shrader tonight. Overall a great win. We need a really an efficient game against Army. It will propel us forward if we can play a clean, efficient game against them. It’ll get us in a good frame of mind for the gauntlet.

 

[GoSU96]

Some were, others weren't. Still, sometimes you need your WRs to make tough catches.

That’s why I used the word some. And these guys have made tough catches, including tonight.

 

[CuseTG2003]

That was an ACC crew?!?!?

 

[SuFTW]

BYU just walked into Arkansas and came away with a win.

SEC is trash.

What? No bus or plane?

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

The Purdue time out after Schrader gave himself up, was disappointing

Not classy

 

[MSOrange]

Yes road team always has the crew in an out of conference game.

 

[Trueblue25]

Marlowe Wax is a star

 

[LAOrange]

Saying our WRs struggled is being negative? No it’s being realistic. They struggled to separate and catch consistently against a weak secondary. I don’t watch these games with orange colored glasses, I watch it with a realistic mindset. If you don’t like that put me on ignore.

I'm putting him on ignore. He's a whiner.

 

[DPCuse]

I didn’t think Purdue was bad at all. I mean they moved the ball. Played decent D. They just turned the ball over way too much. Clean that up and they might be a bowl team.

They’re just used to screwing Syracuse.

 

[LeMoyneCuse]

Huh?
Simmons (I’m pretty sure) is the guy who had the ball in his arms when the pile was cleared away.

I thought OL 77 might’ve dived in there and ripped it out.
But clearly he did not.

Given that the ball was:
Fumbled.
Not possessed by a Purdue player.
Actually possessed by a Syracuse player.

You’d think it’d be a pretty easy call to get correct.

I'm not saying I agree with the call but...

College rules are (allegedly) who possesses the ball first, not who comes out of the pile with it. So it may well have been 77 who they credited with possession.

I thought Noah Eagle was fantastic.

Amazing

I'm interested to see how they do against Wisconsin next week.

 

[4evaOrange]

WERE GOING STREAKING!!!!!




Anna is not you sick wackjobs.

 

[bigmike]

Purdues red zone offense was weak, but I attribute that mostly to our D.

 

[UpstateSM]

Marlowe Wax is a star

Gonna be hard for another defender in my lifetime to top him and Mikel back to back in my eyes. What a run of dudes.

McDonald hasn't shown the same personality and chit talking but man he might be the best player of the three by the time he's done here... he does some freaky stuff regularly.

Absolutely agree. I knew him a bit when he was at Newhouse four years ago, and I was extremely impressed by him. He's only 26; he will be one of the great ones. (And he's a really nice kid)

That I never knew and thank you for sharing.

I still dislike the B10.

its like last years 6-0 to 7-6 didn’t happen to some. We literally saw GS wear down and it’s going to happen again. He’s got to take less hits. it’s a fair take

its also fair to comment that this was the first valid game without OG and now he’s out for the for year and suggesting the WRs need to play better isnt crazy at all.

BUT you can also enjoy the great great win and the praise the heart of the team. it’s possible to walk and chew gum for some, I guess

They were pretty good up front defensively, generally protected their QB, WR’s looked pretty good, and QB was decent.

Didn’t seem to have any game breakers on offense, and seemed prone to major breakdowns both with the turnovers on O and the defensive plays where bafflingly Shrader had huge lanes - never seen a team get faked out so badly by fake handoffs. Perhaps partially a result of a new staff? We had some horrific defensive breakdowns early in the Dino tenure.

I loved Spruill but Wax is an ACC big time LB. Not undersized and just hits. Mikel’s a dog like Zaire but Wax is a stud in his own right too
