I refuse to believe that... Fleck has had his number... It was Fleck vs Fleck today. Purdue had a good game plan but it was neutralized by the 3rd quarter. Had we scored on the two terrible offensive series after we tied it up, I have no doubt that we would have won because it would have cause...

This. But... Let us not forget, the defense was playing great and slowly got our momentum back. Went right down and scored the tying TD. I tend to tune everything out before that because it was a brand new game... What I can not, for the life of me, understand is why we started running out the...

I'll be fine with 3 losses max.

I am certain we lose to Illinois. I think we match better with Penn State, so maybe we upset them.

No matter how good our defense is, if the other team has a potent offense, if we keep taking our foot off the peddle, they will chip away and eventually pass us up. I really don't think we will be able to keep up with Illinois if we don't change our coaching philosophy.

Can you guys ask next time "Why do you guys shut down the offense after you tied the game, especially when you guys couldn't run the ball the whole game?"

Honestly, had we tied it up earlier before half time, we'd just curl up and hope the time runs out and end up losing again. This was a Coaching issue today. I am not saying we played a good game at all, but you can not tell me that we played to win after tying it. I have no idea what we were...

I get it that he wanted a spark... but the play call was horrendous. "Let's trick them by bringing in our wildcat package... they will never guess our QB will RUTM" Really? Like really? wth....

The Conservatives (Unless it's 4th down from our own 30)

Ok, so this didn't end well... Didn't think they'd shut down the offense after Tying it.

Nah, I hope Fleck watches the replay and sees that they had momentum and opportunity and to keep their foot on the petal and not shut down again like they did today.

STOP! I respect Morgan and what he's done but if you saw some of his passes today... like the floater to the endzone that almost got picked off... My grandma could have zipped it in better. Or is barely 40 yard hail mary... yeah, let's just say Coach Morgan.

Can we not include Rossi in the "coaching" though? He and his group did their Job. Bad tackling first series on Defense, after that, they were great. Eventually broke after almost 3 and a half quarters, but yeah, nothing from the Offense.

I beg to differ... watch how the play calling was in the 3rd quarter before we tied it, then watch how we play called after tying it.

I get that he isn't a great QB. I don't expect him to make every throw. What I do wish for is to be a little smarter in play calling. You get a 15 yard pass play and first down... the very next two plays you call RUTM and third and long. Killed your drive. That was what we did all third quarter...

Coaching lost us the game today. The Defense killed any momentum Purdue had. Tied game, we enter conservative mode. Purdue eventually got a break or two on offense. Oh, we're behind now, oh we're running out of time? Fine, we'll pass against 8 DBs! GAME OVER.

Statistics don't lie... What it says is lack of the ability to adjust.

Wow, read all the comments in this thread... I'm not the only one that saw them get conservative. Running for like 5 plays in a row? Running the time down like we were ahead when it was tied? Only resorting to passes on 3rd and long? If you didn't see that, you must not be watching.

Purdue doesn't even deserve this game... It's all on Fleck.

So people will be mad at Morgan, at that interception... but geeze, you had the momentum... you had a tie game... and you just get conservative. I'm so pissed. It's the damn offensive play calling and Fleck's chicken conservative personality. And now when they really need to pass... the defense...
