Game Thread: Illinois vs Purdue

[Illini IndyCar Fan]

Ope, spotted in the visitor’s garage bay. At least Champaign’s owned and operated Peoria Charter hasn’t wrapped one of their busses with the Purdue branding yet.

I wonder if Windstar sends their Illini wrapped busses back home to Iowa City after every game, or if they store them somewhere here around town.

 

[Mr. Tibbs]

Not calling for anyone to lose their job... BUT... Does he have to win to save his job ?

doubt it
but a thorough arse whipping ala ND or Wiscy will be trouble for him

 

[BlueFlag]

If that were so, why announce it? Let PU waste time preparing for Kaden not knowing he won't play?
Hopefully BB knows that we're gonna pound them and doesn't care how they prepare.

Injury reports are required by the BIG 10 two hours before kickoff.

Been happening a lot of last couple weeks across football. USC D Lineman, QB at UNLV, among others

Yeah, but it hasn't ever seemed to be an issue here. I think BB and his staff have earned enough trust/credibility regarding culture that it wouldn't be as likely here

I think we’re about to watch Ryan Walters last game as Purdue’s HC.

 

[DrMac210]

i’m not worried about missing KF for today , as long as he’s 100% for next week

Hoping he’ll be okay next week.

But pretty sure he hit that guy late in the Penn State game with the same shoulder that was hurt last year (and has still been wearing a brace on it this season).

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

Many have been talking a big game all week about us blowing Purdue out of the stadium. I hope that you're right. These are exactly the types of games that we wet the bed on.

Looking forward to a Memorial Stadium massacre, a Purdue Pete pummelin', a boilermaker beatdown. Will take a win, but let's not make it close.

 

[Coop70]

OK, I'll say it. Do not like the all blue!

 

[LFOD]

Okay, let’s crush these guys. Looking for a big passing game from Luke.

Looking for a lot of Valentine love today,.

My biggest concern is that play right there today. A running QB.. we do not have a proper LB spy that can handle a running QB.

 

[FloridaMan]

Not a great job by the D there

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Here we go.

 

[FloridaMan]

Here's an idea maybe. Somene spy the QB??!!!!!!

 

[illinoistradition]

Somebody better drill this kid and make him pay for running this much

 

[ohioillini77]

Didn't prepare for qb keepers.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Henry does know this isn't Card, right?

 

[RIP_Chief_2003]

PUR +22 was always the take

 

[derrick6]

Tackle the pile forward, watch the tackle without engaging, are two problems with run defense

 

[New Creation]

Some stop the freaking QB.. he will only pass 1 out of 10 plays…and they are going for it. QB run up the middle
