Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

I've had this game circled for a while. This one scares me. In spite of all of the discussion about B1G QB's as to who is best and blah, blah, blah, David Blough is one of the best looking throwers that I've seen this year. And now with Rondell Moore to help carry the load, this offense is scary good. 

To say I am over the top stoked for this game will be an understatement.  Biggest game in Ross Ade we have a legit, not just hoping and wishing we can beat a true top-ranked team probably since the OSU game in 2007 in Curtis Painter's jr year.

That week before (Purdue was 4 if not 5-0) was the only week Purdue has been ranked dating back to 2004 when Purdue went from 5-0 and leading Wisc 6 10 with 6.5 mins left to unranked in 3 weeks.  In 2007 our offense was quickly exposed as none of out WR's could get separation and as was re-proven many a times in the Painter era, he couldn't beat a good team.

I'm sure OSU will out class the hell out of us via huge talent surplus (keep in mind Purdue has 4 years of Hazell's last place recruiting classes making up at least half the team), but Blough is playing at an unbelievably confident level right now, 18 y.o. Rondale Moore may be our fastest player since Ron Woodson, and suffice it to say, I really, really dig the hell out of the guy who is calling our plays.

I see where the Boilers 3 losses have come by a total of 8 pts.Not to shabby 

Nick Bosa out for the year per the Columbus Dispatch.

I am hearing on 610 WTVN that he has withdrawn from the team and the school. Not sure what that's all about.

didn't hear that. That is a little weird. I know he's going to be a top 5-10 pick and instant millionaire, but you'd think he'd at least try to finish his degree in 3 yrs. Not impossible. More and more football players are now finishing their degrees in 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 yrs because of the grad transfer rule where if they have that degree they can transfer without sitting a year. Never hurts to have a degree from a great school like tOSU.

If a player can graduate in 3 years, he definitely knows it by year 2.5. If Bosa is leaving, the credits are unlikely that close. Also: if you were told you'd be a multimillionaire before graduation and can no longer contribute to your team, what would you do? I bet most people would flee. Either to enjoy a little living or to work 100% on physical therapy and cautious training with an expert in the lead-up to the draft.
