Nice to hold them to a field goal, now let's take the lead.

To win this game we need to be like plus three in turnovers. Dropped int is huge, need to capitalize on all turnover opportunities.

Lowe may have moved, quite honestly I did not see it. What I did see however, was no flag nor whistle until the Purdue defender kept pointing and waving.

Who is calling the game?

Purdue is selling out for the run. They are going to make Thomas beat them with his arm.

I like the game plan here. If PU is all in on the run, let Cam throw.

I agree. It's pretty much 1 on 1 for Smalling/Turner. Might as well go to them and hope Thomas avoids the INTs.

Too bad Dudek is out. I think we'd be carving up their secondary with either QB if we had that one extra weapon.

I never understood why an illegal defensive substitution was blown dead before the play. Not too long ago it was like a free play, similar to offsides. Let the offense have a chance at a play, then enforce the penalty or the result of the play.

No reason to stop a play, especially when player is running off the field ( most of the time.)

Foster is having a great game! Good to see.

Is a TD too much to ask for here? Good job burning a lot of clock on this drive.

1st and Goal at the 6 and we LOSE 8 yards. At least there wasn't a TO.

Cam played pretty well...need to to go in tied at half...need to tackle not pull ball out

With one minute left.......

Long, sustained drives. No turnovers. Crisp passing by Cam, and really good game management. And the D is not being pushed around.

They have time for 1 shot at the End Zone and one FGA.
