Everyone, chill.

Garner is the best QB we'll face this season (especially most dynamic).

Just wait til Saturday, watching Purdue's oline get pushed by ISU was hilarious.
I'd be shocked if we don't get 5 sacks.

As for the rest of the season, no QB will hurt us like Garner.
And no environment will be as hostile.

ND will get better, they'll be fine.
Let the coaches work on the kinks.

Taylor Kelly. Go watch some of his film and then be afraid. He's fantastic.

On a side note, was getting trained on a medication distribution system today by a nurse who was from Davenport Iowa.

Mentioned I was a big ND fan, and she told me one of her best friends when she was younger was Johnny Lujack's daughter, and she'd been to a couple of games with them back in the day.

Friggin' amazing, the luck of some people.

He lives in Bettendorf Iowa now, and at the age of 88, is still constantly asked for autographs.

He could probably throw a deep out pattern better than Tommy today, with no warmup

Bad news for Purdue: They have not scored an offensive touchdown against an opponent who got scored 73 against Indiana.
This is probably the worst Purdue team in a while according to the beginning of their season.

So you're saying we should expect a nail biter?

I look for the Irish to win big in this one. I would like to see the Irish establish their superiority early and keep the pedal down. BK doesn't like to "run up the score" but hey we need to. I want to see domination from start to finish.

Just bought my tickets!!! Section 105, row 5.

Last time I was at Ross Ade it was a noon start and ND was smacked around to the tune of 33 - 19. I fully expect this game day experience to be much more pleasant.

Live about 5 minutes from Bettendorf and its very true...he is asked every day...let me add in that hes kind of grumpy nowadays lol

If you couldn't have regular bowel movements you'd be grumpy to.

I'm looking for the offense to rush for about 350+ Saturday.

so let me try and follow the logic here. this isn't where this should go but it shouldn't go in Greg's own thread? even though it is a picture of Greg from his own twitter account?

so instead the Purdue week thread?

did Kelly get asked anything else besides freshman rbs?

I wanted to share the pic that Greg posted because it's awesome.

I don't bump player's threads unless it's player news. I can't emphasize that enough.

Purdue thread is constantly bumped, so there's really no other place to put it. This thread is going to be 'live' until after the Purdue game.

So yes, this is the best spot for it IMO.

Where do you suggest it go?

Probably in the player's thread because it pertains to the player, and you obviously consider it "newsworthy" which is why you felt a need to post it.
