  1. Finally a PI, but they call holding
  2. That's a no-PI call makeup for the earlier call - or the officials are incompetent.
  3. College coaches can be so dumb some time. Making great progress up the field - let's call a trick play.
  4. Up yours, Lebby. That's what you get for calling a timeout.
  5. Refs are biased toward MSU. Punch thrown. Holding. Taunting. Nothing called. Sigh
  6. Angel Reese ad talking about noise is fresh, given she creates most of the noise.
  7. Yes. I met him a few weeks back and he had a tight Nike shirt on.
  8. Final check-in and quick summary of Purdue-Nebraska. Final score Nebraska 28, Purdue 10 Purdue had a total of 224 yards of offense: 55 on the first drive of the 2nd half (FG) and 75 yards for a TD to bring the game to 28-10. Before the final drive, they had more penalty yards than offense yards. Both teams stink. Purdue stinks more. I *think* Hudson Card is now the first ex-Longhorn QB with a losing record to Nebraska and he's now 0-2 (at Purdue). EDIT to add: Card has not improved at all since he left Texas. Still uses the same spin moves to try to get away from sacks. Still holds the ball too long. Still thinks he's faster than everyone else. Pros: Weather was awesome. 73 degrees and overcast during first half; sunny in 2nd half when I was in the shade. Alumni band + entire band halftime show was great. Matt Rhule got an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty Ticket cost $10.29 including $5.43 of fees. Purdue blocked 2 FGs in first half. 3rd quarter took 28 minutes, 11 of which was commercial timeout Cons: Low level of play all around. Glimpse of hope for Purdue in 2nd half Purdue is slow and small Nebraska fans travel well Got poured on as I walked back to where I was staying.
  9. After two penalties for 25 yards on the same play against Nebraska, Nebraska completes a 27 yard screen pass on second and 28. Purdue proceeds to get a facemask penalty. Nebraska scores a couple plays later. Purdue offense: 149 yards. Penalties: 165 pick 6 by Card. 28-3. Both teams really suck.
  10. Nebraska TD to go up 14-3. Might be enough.
  11. Nebraska up 7-3 over Purdue. Purdue has 144 yards of offense and 135 penalty yards. Brutal.
  12. Purdue leads 3-0 after a 8:18 drive to start 3rd.
  13. Trust me, it’s almost as bad in person. Alumni band was great at halftime.
  14. I am at the Nebraska- Purdue game. They both suck. 0-0 at half. Purdue has 89 yards of offense and 90 penalty yards. Blocked 2 NU kicks so far.
  15. Had a great call with @troph this morning. The people are what is so great about this community.
  16. Just saw the postgame was sponsored by JC Penney, so it makes a little more sense.
  17. I cannot believe the spouses of these halftime commenter guys let them out of the house dressed like clowns.
  18. My son and I saw, in person, 2-29 Detroit at 24-6 Boston, in Boston, on Dec 28. It was 2 really shitty games packed into 1. Detroit led 66-47 at half. Boston tied it by the end of the 3rd Q and ultimately won in OT. Depending on perspective that was either 2 really shitty games or 2 transcendent games all packed into 1. It was entertaining, though
