Several programming notes are in order:
No results will be tabulated next week. The thread posted on October 28 will contain results from both Weeks 8 and 9.
The reason for this is that next Friday, yours truly will be sitting in a ballroom at the RiverCentre in St. Paul, taking the professional engineer exam. I'm clearing my schedule so that I can hope to be properly prepped for that all-day exam. If this goes well, I'll be able to tack P.E. on the end of my professional title. Unfortunately, Minnesota does not have a neat seal to sign, like Washington and Pennsylvania (and some others).
I won't be the only one testing my mettle. The Purdue Boilermakers haven't had a good middle section of the season, and a road game at Kinnick Stadium isn't a great place to get things back on track. One way to get things going your way is to hold onto the ball as long as they can. They haven't done a good job of it so far this year, averaging 28:59 of possession per game. On the other hand, Iowa is king of holding. They're second in the league at 34:15/game, second only to Wisconsin (they've kept it 37 minutes and change).
Q: What will Purdue's time of possession be in their game at Iowa?
Deadline is Saturday, October 19 at 11 AM CDT. Good hunting.
