Purdue wins! 

Sindelar went into the tent after Purdue's final offensive snap. It was a QB draw. Backup was warming up if needed. 

We'll see as that develops next week...

That was big by Aidan Hutchinson. I'm so relieved they stopped playing Ben Mason.

Dear Dwumfour and Jeter:

Please get healthy the next two weeks. We need you to at least take sooooome snaps v UW. 

Being out two key DTs and our best OT has been brutal so far  this year

Run the ball, kick the manageable FG.  Keep playing.

That was all play-call, nothing to do with a talent discrepancy.

How do you define manageable FG for a TrFr with an 0/1 history? Probably based on practice. Maybe the coach knew that they needed a first down.

Nah talent had a lot to do with that. Pass play might have been a bad call (I agree btw) but army doesn’t have good pass blockers and Mich talent took advantage. Talent had a ton of influence on that series.

It might need to be shorter than 30 yards. If so, praying for a 1st down above all else was the right call. He seemed like a smart coach. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

Illinois bails out UConn with a forearm shiver to the qb's head.
