 I'll have a beer (Great Lakes Oktoberfest) and commandeer the good television from the kids.  
Fantastic choice and maybe their best effort of any style.It disappeared off the shelves almost as soon as they announced its release last year.Have to have Bill at the corner put 2 cases on the side for me.Can't have any yet as I'm still waiting out a leg infection that sent me the Hospital for 4 days

You're an Ohio State fan. I'm sure you liked him a lot better than Wolverine fans considering he was one of the main reasons Ohio State won that game in 2016. A pick 6, another bad INT that was essentially another pick 6 after the flag on Michigan on the return, and lest we not forget the lost fumble at the one yard line. 21 point swing right there.
The pick 6 was a nice play by Baker but no doubt about the other two.They reminded me of Stanley Jackson vs M in'97 he cost tOSU 10 pts in a game they lost by 6.Joe Germaine had the highest QB rating in the Big 10 at the time.But Coach Stupor thought it prudent that he should be platooned with a turn over machine.I understand the Rancor

Well, thankfully(??) I had to go to a school event for my son and then by the time I got home I was already getting texts of "are the Boilermakers going to keep playing dead?"

So, not so good...

But Rondale Moore... WOW! First game as a Boilermaker, true freshman, and he set the school record for all-purpose yards in a single game. And not against a MAC or FCS school... Against a conference opponent.

That kid is special.

Between the INTs (not the process of them being intercepted, good for NU making those plays, but the fact that they were thrown ... like that) and then Neal's penalty to set on fire 2.5 minutes of a final comeback drive, I kept thinking Purdue looked like the better team but couldn't get out of its own way.

I'm struggling with the idea of two of the B1G's best teams playing on Friday night.

Western Michigan only down 6 after trailing 34-7 at one point and one from each team just got ejected.  Syracuse qb with his 1st unsportsmanlike as well.

Lewerke looked pretty good in the first half. Same with LJ Scott. The OL and pass defense were less than expected, though. MSU often starts slow, of course. With 19 returning starters, though, I thought they might come out on fire. Still the second half will almost certainly be exactly opposite.
