Game Thread Ohio State @ Purdue - 10/20/18, 7:30PM (ABC)

[scarletngray]

Purdue lost its first three games. They have won their last three games but two of those teams were Nebraska and Illinois. Its hard to get impressed with victories over the bottom of the barrel in the Big Ten. They did beat BC early on and gave a good fight in a losing effort against Mizzou, who got curb stomped by BAMA this week.

#4 is scary good. He can cause problems.

But their Defense shouldn't pose much of a problem and we should put up some points on them. Here's hoping!

Holy Buckeye Part 2 coming to Ben Victor. I'd take it but probably die of a heart attack immediately following

I hear you. Hill and Dixon are other great candidates who could pull it off, lest I forget Campbell. Take your blood pressure meds before the game. That's what I'll be doing.

Haskins might pass for 500 yards

He might need to.

Oh it’s gonna be a plunger game!

Do the anus post

Do the anus post

That sounds really weird out of context.

 

[LovelandBuckeye]

That sounds really weird out of context.

Actually, around here that sounds pretty normal even with context.

 

[Taosman]

Will the defense be in the "nickle" all night? That might actually help! A high scoring affair this will probably be with both offenses going up and down the field. It should make for great TV watching unless you're a Buckeye fan. But maybe the guys get motivated for this on as they have been down since Ped State.

Oh it’s gonna be a plunger game!

I like your optimism too!

 

[JCOSU86]

After watching a team absolutely sleepwalk against a far inferior opponent, I'm not overconfident. Should the Buckeyes win? Easily. But they must wake the fuck up.

 

[Honor&Glory]

Zero confidence. This game will be a dog fight. Just find a way to win.

What do the two highest rated games of the season so far have in common? THE Ohio State University.

 

[Steve19]

Why did so many people watch Evil Knievel?

 

[buckeyemania11]

Blough has been good about not throwing picks so far this year, but historically he is an INT machine (35 INTs in his career)

Secondary is of course bound to get gashed, but a couple of turnovers and this game should be a somewhat easy W considering Purdue's defense is meh.

 

[Buckeyebred97]

Just get the W and I’ll be pleased. Fully expecting a shootout. Gonna day something like 51-31. Haskins just might pass for 500 yards and 5 TD’s. Moore is capable of 200+ yards of offense. If they can minimize his impact that takes away a good bit of their threat.

Just win... just win and get to the bye to get healthy.

Because lets be real we have a 2 week bye with Nebraska coming right after our bye week (Sorry Alex). Then maybe we can get Bosa back while being undefeated and then we can really go.

Just win and to be honest I'm really worried about this one.
