Why did he go to Purdue again?

He was too short to get interest from the major programs. Also the spread/air raid wasn't a thing yet, Michael Vick was just beginning to revolutionize the game and pro-style offenses with tall pocket passers were still the norm.

Still confused about that. With this defense it might matter. 

If Wash gets 7 here, it suddenly becomes real big.

That moment on the sideline with his children was awesome. So wholesome.

Tuned in right as they replayed it.  What did he say/do on the sideline?

[Helobious 9477]

Is the Triplett guy special needs? He could barely form sentences, kept talking about a “3rd foot”, and was wrong about the call.

[spystud13 2371]

Rather large turn of events.

He was one of the worst referees in the NFL when he was a active, so it makes perfect sense that ESPN picked him up as a rules expert.

Plus, Mack was such an astute judge of QB talent.  

[spystud13 2371]

Cool from Peyton. 

[Radical Larry 28523]

I'm surprised Manning didn't make that into a Nationwide commercial. 

[Vic Mackey 46919]

Lol, the NFL is so stupid. The gave the Saints a 15 yard celebration penalty on that. 

That's Goodell for you.

Mack wasn’t here yet. 

[satyanash 14276]

Flashback to Drew Brees' days at high school and Purdue. Brees explains that he wasn't recruited highly because he was too short, and coaches viewed him as a 'system QB'.

Really?

[Vic Mackey 46919]

Wasn't Brees first year in college 97 or 98?

I'm surprised he hasn't overdosed by now. Dude is barely coherent these days.

Ah yes, who could forget Mack passing on Drew Brees in the first round of the 2001 NCAA Draft. 

[Macanudo 12922]

Hey, what can I say.   I'm a functioning drunk.

[Machinator 32097]

Pitch and catch.

[spystud13 2371]

Easy game. 

[Anastasis 23375]

Killing it. 

[Zonahorn 8079]

The Redskins defense sucks

[spystud13 2371]

Norman benched or hurt? 

[Vic Mackey 46919]

The Redskins defense sucks

Just wait until they play Dallas. They will become the 85 Bears

Garrett would have kicked there, but it’s fucking over now.

Cool factoid: The first game that Camp Randall Stadium jumped around at the end of the 3rd quarter was the game that then-sophomore Drew Brees went 55 of 83 passing. Both were NCAA records at the time, only recently bested.

Don't think Smith could have made a worse throw if he tried

[immortal13 4059]

Damn the redskins fucking suck worse than us

[Vic Mackey 46919]

Lulz Skins. And they are still your 1st place team after tonight.

I’m not disputing that he’s a good quarterback, but texas in the late 90s was a machine.  he wasn’t talented enough to play here, period.  

[spystud13 2371]

Damn, blowouts in both sporting events tonight.

Let’s not forget every NFL team passed on him too.

And San Diego picked Rivers over Brees.

Right. Every team passed on him. I think he’s proven himself as first round worthy. 

[Vic Mackey 46919]

There was 31 teams back then, genius.

[Anastasis 23375]

Too many beautiful daughter drops kinda creepy

Way to completely disappear tonight, Reed.

He was the 2nd QB taken, I guess the Patriot and the Colts passed up on Brees too
