Since the start of the 2000 season, tOSU's record in West Lafayette is 2-4.

Boiler fans will still lament the fourth quarter/OT of last year's game.
 
tOSU ticket office is only selling to season ticket holders, and they don't know what sections. They told me to call Purdue. Purdue said tOSU will be in Sections 117-119 (NW end zone). Think I'll just get them in 115 or 116. Should be plenty of Buckeye fans, and closer to the center of the end zone. Hope to see several of you there!!

Some random thoughts on Purdue;

-6 games into the season Hazell said "no mas" to QB Rob Henry and made him the starting Safety giving the starting job to true freshman Danny Etling. Unfortunately for Purdue, Danny hasn't had the greatest time of it so far going 47/99 for 589 yards with 3 TD against 4 INT's and (apparently not being the most elusive sumbitch to ever live) being sacked 13 times.

-The mighty Black Shirt defense of Nebraska held them to 216 total yards and sacked him 5 times, giving up the lone TD of the game with under a minute to go in a 44-0 drubbing. Sparty was more of the same, gaining 226 yards, being sacked 5 times and being shut out.

-Purdue needed a KO return and a last minute INT to beat Indiana State by 6.

-Then again, the goofy bastards actually outgained Northern Illinois and made a respectable showing against ND.

-The defense is just god awful routinely giving up 400+ yards and 40+ points to pretty much anyone with an offensive pulse.

Unless OSU comes out flatter than house paint and turns it over 5+ times this shouldn't even be close.

As long as I'm still above ground come Saturday I'll be posting the links to the game in my Sig again this week. I might be a tad superstitious at this point but it seemed to work pretty well against PSU (63-14). If the link only offers audio @Gothmog8 for crying out loud let me know before the third quarter.


Now keep it rolling BUCKS!!!!!!!

They are flat out awful this year

122nd in scoring offense
106th in scoring defense

they average 2.7 ypc rushing as a team

qbs combine for 50% completion 7 td 10 int

basically they struggle badly in every aspect of the game....Purdue has given tOSU fits over the years but their squad this year is some kind of awful and this game should not be close
