Purdue (1-1, 2-3) at Nebraska (0-2, 0-4) Post Game
« on: September 24, 2018, 01:35:58 PM »
Way to start off with some bulletin board material, Scottie!


Quote
"We've got a chance to get reset next week," Frost said. "This is a really good (Michigan) team we played. We get a game that we can win next week.

Pretty sure that some Purdue players are angry that they're 1-3 right now instead of 4-0, so this is going to be a battle of who wants it more.

I *think* we can keep their points down to a reasonable degree, because our front seven on D is better than their OL. We should be able to get after Blough. 

Our OL is atrocious though. We haven't played a good quarter of offense since the first half against Colorado, who didn't have a concrete idea of what we would be doing at kickoff, and I don;t expect that to change this week. 

Purdue 30
Nebraska 16

If that's what qualifies as bulletin board material, we as a society need to get better at insulting people's mamas and the like.   I'm not sure how saying you get a game you can win a game is supposed to trigger your opponent.

I think last year's 4th quarter sequence would be motivation enough for Purdue.

even with all the disappointment so far, I might attend this game.

Going to be playing golf in Omaha Sunday morning anyway.

Frost didn't say the Huskers were going to win, he didn't say Purdue sucks.  Maybe he should say some things to motivate his team.

Well, it's certainly not a huge slight... Purdue is 1-3 with a bad loss to EMU. 
But it's clearly them saying that Purdue is "just Purdue". Michigan's a real football team. But Purdue is a half-step above the MAC, so Nebraska is just supposed to dominate?
It's like, you know y'all got beat by Troy, right?

I certainly agree, but not with the bold part
I think perhaps, "Nebraska is supposed to be able to compete"

and yet Frost didn't even say dominate, or whoop, or handle, or anything.  He said they play an opponent and can win a football game.  Others would be choosing to interpret that as a slight against Purdue.    Perhaps Vegas is slighting Purdue with a -3 line?

When our new Power Rankings come out it looks like Nebraska will be roughly tied for 12th/13th while Purdue will be in 9th so this isn't likely to have any impact on the B1GCG but it is huge for both teams' bowl hopes.  

For Nebraska:
The Huskers are in serious trouble.  They are 0-3 and it appears unlikely that they'll schedule a replacement for Akron so they would need to finish 6-2 to get to 6-5 and definite eligibility or 5-3 to get to 5-6 and possible eligibility.  Neither of those things are likely but finishing 6-1 or 5-2 after losing this game is even less likely so they have to win here to even have a plausible chance.  

For Purdue:  
Those three close early losses could come back to cost the Boilermakers a chance to go bowling.  They are 1-3 and need to finish 5-3 to get to 6-6 and definite eligibility or 4-4 to get to 5-7 and possible eligibility.  Those are definitely possible especially with Illinois and Minnesota still on the schedule but finishing 5-2 or 4-3 after losing this game would be very unlikely.
