[QUOTE="Birdus, post: 1808749, member: 748758"] I merely stated that it would be a 4 quarter game. I did not say that we would lose. I don't look at Wisconsin and Nebraska. For one, we did not have to contend with Nebby's qb for 4 quarters. It might not have made much of a difference in the victory of margin and then again, the game might have been a little closer. Wisconsin is playing better football now under their new coach and we do have a better run defense. Now, here is my reasoning. Purdue played Penn State tough for 4 quarters. Yeh, that was at their place but it was a close one. Penn State is a top 20 team whether we agree on that or not. Purdue almost beat Syracuse at Cuse and Syracuse has been a good team this year. Not great! but ranked. Purdue did beat Minnesota even thought they did not have Ibraham but they still won. Purdue may not be a top 25 or even 30 team but could be better than most any team we have played this year thus far. They certainly have the best q.b. we will have faced thus far. Plus the fact that this particular game means so much more for both teams. That being said, Let's Beat M.S. [/QUOTE]
