I’m excited about this game. I once again feel like the future has promise. Sad that I have to keep feeling this way because we’ve hit yet another low. I think the kids will be loose and will get after it better. On offense, I’m hoping we see something more exciting and progressive but I’m not sure if they have any of that in their repertoire. We’ll see now whether or not there is an actual offensive mind on staff.

Boilermakers barely beat Beavers. THEY didn't look good. I am not a gambler (excepting Saratoga) ... but there is no way we give 34. Respect Bell. But that QB isn't good. That line is sketchy for their level. And WE are playing ... for Fun

Seemed on almost every play UConn’s defense gave up 2+ yards after initial contact against Holy Cross. I absolutely hate watching that. Someone else said it, the score will be whatever Purdue wants it to be. I would guess they stop somewhere in the 50’s. UConn won’t do anything running, maybe a turnover or big pass/return play will get them some points. The margin likely will be 45+.

"That quarterback" just went 16-20 or for 245 with four touchdowns. In one half of play.

Yeah it’s not like andrezs Hughes-Murray is a baller or Omar speights, Avery roberts are outstanding defenders .. or beaver corner rezjohn Wright might be better than any corner UConn has for the next decade or anything like that.
purdue is a lot closer to notre dame than you guys are to us and this week my tone is gonna be hoping that if the boilers have an outstanding game … maybe just maybe we will be in the same position Toledo was in today. And after they close call, if we are in that position, it will take everything bell and karlaftis have.
did karlaftis stop your back from falling forward, throw him back onto his feet and hit him again? Pretty sure I’ve never seen that before

You really have to come back here and kick us while we're down? Get a life.

Well, I for one, am not down. This was fully expected. What I still fail to understand, however, is why UConn still insists on running the ball more than once every five or six downs. Is this training for next year or something? I mean, by now it is clear that the only utility running plays have for UConn this year is to keep the opposing pass defense honest.

After being told for a week that their team would cover the spread, who comes back and brags "Haha, you told you so!"

Is there seriously a Purdue Fan S*** talking people here after beating this version of Uconn? Congrats on dominating a team that lost to a FCS School after squeaking by the worst team in The Pac 12 the week before. Purdue looks better than they've been, congrats on that, but me thinks the next two weeks may be very humbling to those looking to dunk on lesser programs like this dude.
I did.. you guys just gotta hope you have good people in the AD. 6 years ago hazell had us getting blown up by Mac teams. Your AD, if good, can bring in your Jeff brohm or joe tiller.
we’ve been rolled up and smoked by northern Illinois. It doesn’t get worse than that dude. If your AD is good you’ll be back
.-.
I didn’t like some of the stuff talking about “where you live in the big ten”
I more so thought it was comical that that guy thought plummer wasn’t good .. as though Oregon state just sucks.
if a Purdue fan comes out this week and says “notre dame.. not that good” and we lose by 21 I’ll roast him too
UConn is cool and will see better days. A couple of your fans are morons, but that’s every fan base

Listen - I said we were horrendously bad and it showed yesterday. You really have to try to understand our situation to grasp how bad things have been around here and still are. We don't have the luxury of being in a P5 conference no matter how bad it gets for Purdue. We're a unique situation. We've been in hybrid leagues. Our basketball brand is our only selling point. Our football stock is at a historically all-time low. Conference realignment has destroyed us because 1) the criteria was always different for us and we were always the odd man looking out, and 2) our admins have made every single wrong move before/during/since at all the wrong times and our coaching moves have been our own destruction.
You don't have to worry whether Purdue will have a FBS football program in 5-10 years. We do with UConn.

No .. I have no issue with most UConn fans or UConn .. the dude who said plummer wasn’t that good and the other guy who was saying that teams in our section of the big Ten are beatable were morons
when Darrell hazell was our coach and I would tell Minnesota fans they’d beat us by 30, then they’d come back and talk smack to another guy who said their QB wasn’t that good … I didn’t take it personally
I think your team played as hard as they could but you don’t rank in the 80s in recruiting or whatever was being posted on our board and then have the ability to match players like trice, Hartwig, Allen, Durham and plummer let alone bell or karlaftis … your QB is one tough kid cause I couldn’t take that.
I don’t think we are great. ND should be a 10 point favorite and I’ll be happy with 6-6
good luck going forward … you next hire will either save or break you
6-6 big ten team that could have scored 91 if brohm was a
And when I say that, this team probably goes 9-3 playing our 2007 schedule. The big ten has gotten insanely tougher. Wouldn’t be surprised to see us lose 34-20 at notre dame .. some of the comments by your fans were still ridiculously stupid

Read my post, instead of cherry picking every diss that some UConn fans here may have said about your precious team. Didn't your team make its point enough yesterday?
I personally have no problem with opposing fans being here, but read the frickin' room, man. We're at an all time low with no solutions for the near future. Think anyone's in the mood to hear your beefs?

Still nothing special. We lose to everyone.
Indiana state will play us tougher next year
never thought we were special. I think Iowa is the lower end of special .. we beat Iowa a lot but that’s just cause brohm is a terrible matchup for ferentz. We aren’t as good as Iowa.
I bet if I go back and read two weeks ago before Fresno state you were one of the people posting about how Purdue’s area of the big ten is beatable and all of that crap. Never thought I’d see a fan of a team we could have beat by 90 pulling the “just Purdue” stuff like you root for Wisconsin lol.
special? Who knows? More competitive with the 2001 Miami hurricanes than you were with us? Yeah lol. If we played the 05 Texas Longhorns I don’t think Vince young would be asleep in the 4th quarter while Texas had their 4th string QB in with true freshmen up and down the OL. Have a nice decade dude

Still nothing special. We’d lose to the Sycamores, so you guys will have that in common. You’re as good as Indiana State.

It is tough being a FBS program in the Northeast. Buffalo - Army - Temple ... all went through extended suck. We had a glorious Big East experience. Therefore, the calls for FCS is laughable. We have better football infrastructure than about 50 of the 135. If you want to think we will be Indiana State forever ... or Indiana Hoosiers. Go ahead. This is crazy in the present. A world where the USF team can go 10-2 a few years ago ... and now they are considered the dregs. Now UCF is reining and deserving.
Our peers say the Boilermakers and Rutgers are the bottom of the B10. You both didn't look it yesterday.
Big ten is way tougher now.. If this team played joe tillers late schedules or danny hopes schedules we might be 9-3/10-2 .. as it stands I’ll be thrilled if Purdue goes 7-5.
as far as you guys go .. did I hear right? Do you not have a stadium in storrs and students have to go 25 miles to get to the game? I’d say if you’re gonna be competitive in p5 you need a stadium on campus
we were just where you guys are at now in 2014 .. getting blown out at home vs Mac teams. One good hire and who knows
