If I was only getting an internet play by play list, I’d think this game was being played in a rain downpour.

Great punt, but c'mon man...

Back to back games choosing to punt -- guess BB feels strongly about his convictions.
Done in by a bubble screen, nice.

Absolutely no reason to do that. Someone talke him out of going for it, going for a FG, or he talked himslef out of it.
I am in no form a Lovie fan but, the hate on here for everything he did is ridiculous!Are you related to Lovie, or intentional dense/trolling? We literally have 5 years of data to see how bad Lovie was at coaching college football, recruiting, building in state relationships, etc.
Yet, you seem to still want to defend him…

That is the right question.

Cool, so now we're in the exact same position as if we had turned it over on downs.

A surefire way to lose is playing not to lose.

Losing the push up front with three.
How has Purdue scored at least 20 points in that many straight games?
Or three.
Oh man #10... You are not an outfielder
Interesting stat in this game earlier i believe it said we led B1G in turnovers forced since 2019 which I think you can link to lovie football

Not going for at least a FG on that 4th down should haunt this staff for the rest of the season.
Purdue remembering these are still Lovie’s DBs with a Lovie-based awareness…
ok.. well.. didn't know we were gonna have a maryland part 2

Was afraid it would be under thrown at 4 - oops it was at 3.
So, so frustrating. If we go for it and covert the game is likely over. Instead, we are likely looking at being down 4...and as Illinois fans, we know how this ends.
Play to win the damn game.
