Good lord Daniels picked the wrong school. His team sucks ass
He seems legitimately snake bit. Probably never gives up his job at SC if he doesn’t get hurt, then lost his job at Georgia definitely because he got hurt, now is playing on a team with zero OL and probably going to get hurt.

The kid is a player. I think he has low-end NFL level talent if he could just have consistent pass catchers and a competent OL.

Purdue lost,… Pedo did not win,.. they should get only half a win
This. If Purdue would just tackle instead of throwing a shoulder into the ball carrier, they probably win. They also kept two PSU TD drives going with penalties.

PSU's offense looked like something out of the 90's.

I was relieved Nicholas Singleton didn't eviscerate the Purdue D. I think he could've done special things behind our OL but his first performance was forgettable.

I really wish Jadarian didn't get hurt, the staff was genuinely trying to hide their excitement about him :/

Sean Clifford is fine. He’s Sean Clifford still. The real problem is the OL, Clifford is just a easy scapegoat. All the off-season articles spewed this BS how the OL was going to be better because they were tougher. Purdue has some nice DTs but virtually no run blocking pushing from the jump

They don’t end up with 14 third downs if they weren’t set on trying and largely failing to run the ball. 5 drops too.

IDK if we get it during the OSU game, but here is the ND commercial for the year. My reaction: its incredibly generic and unremarkable. Totally forgettable.

Very bland. Should have continued something from the "What are you fighting for?" theme.

I'm glad to see ND dumping all production money and energy into football recruiting videos.

Looks like a fucking Northwestern commercial. Put at least one CSC in that.

Fascinated by this one. Norfolk isn't that intimidating to play in. Maybe to drive out of. Seems like a close spread. Does VT suck that much?

Most folks online are picking IU- but Bielema's team had some horses last week against ... Wyoming. Also, IU typically sucks. I'm thinking of betting a good one on Ill-Annoy. Thoughts?

I feel the same about Illinois which makes me think we’re suckers. That’s my favorite play of the week.

I hate the BIG across the board,… any underdog in conference is my jam like it’s 1992 and I’m blasting Rump Shaker,… unless it’s Iowa I guess,… fuck all of em generally. Go Indiana tonight until they play some D2 team then fuck them too

Beliemala, or however you spell it, haha, is terrible. I can’t believe he coached in the SEC. He had a lot of hype around him at Arkansas, now he’s just shit. At some point you gotta hang it up.

Michigan state is not looking good even with the refs in their back pocket.

Indiana just got a first down,… I look at IE for ten seconds and they’re kicking a field goal??? I’m also posting on IE after a fair number of beers for the first time in years too so if you bring some weak bullshit like ‘Yay Playoff Expansion,’ ‘Go Illinois!’ Or ‘Bama plays a gauntlet schedule’ expect a level headed response you mo-mos

Mike Elko’s boys look good against an admittedly bad Temple team… but temple was bad last year, and had a whole offseason to evaluate.

Duke is just getting started under Elko. As expected, their defense is flying around and getting to the correct spots before the offensive players.

Hopefully they can shake some things up in the ACC. Let’s get weird.

They must have 25 transfers again. Sometimes you get Ken Walker - sometimes it really is just the 3rd string RB from Wisconsin and a bunch of SEC can’t hack it’s . He’s basically the not all JUCO Bill Snyder of the north.
