well of course because there are more checks. But as for the people who wonder why they aren't running the ball, it's because Purdue has a better interior line than ND does and they are stacking the box because they have excellent corners. If they don't pass a little to loosen it up, there will be issues. Also, it gets Golson into a rhythm which I'm sure is a goal.

They're not passing "a little", they're passing every single play.

This is the same team that we dominated last year running to the edges. Bear that in mind as we continue to not score.

This looks like a totally different team than last week. I'm kind of at a loss for words right now.

Yeah and I think they might need to for a little bit. Physically, Golic and Lombard are having all kinds of issues as expected.

Wait! It's just early Halloween! Bob Davie is wearing a Brian Kelly costume! Who let him in the stadium?

I think almost all the optimism from week 1 was based not on the team's performance (which was easy enough), but on Kelly's performance. Everyone thought he had learned and would now use his team correctly and play to its strengths.

It's as if he wanted to go out of his way in this quarter to destroy all optimism.

Penalties....come on guys.

And our kicking game is a joke. Just go for it from now on.

So run to the left.

And no, you don't sacrifice an entire quarter of offense to loosen up the other team.
