Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

Really, I think it's tough for Purdue fans to making fun of IU football at this point. We've always sucked. You guys are the football school, remember?

That said, I totally thought we'd be good this year. Lynch is fucking terrible and has torn the team apart. So since we're bad, I haven't been making fun of Purdue football, because if that isn't the pot calling the kettle black, I don't know what is.
I was asking a legitimate question. I didn't know if a BT team has ever lost to a MAC team twice in one season. Not making fun of IU, just wondering.

I have no reason to make fun of IU football. I didn't think they were going to be any good this year anyways. I was just wondering about a stat.
i thought i'd heard before this season that the MAC was 0-41 all time vs. the big ten. so far, they have 3 wins (bsu vs. iu, toldeo vs. um, and cmu vs. iu)...
Toledo beat Purdue in Tiller's first game. We also lost to Bowling Green to open the 2003 season. I think Bowling Green also beat Minnesota last year. Miami (OH) beat Northwestern in their 95 or 96 Rose Bowl season also I believe.

Thats just off the top of my head. I knew there were some upsets, and figured with as bad as some BT teams have been in the past, that it'd been a possibility.

0-41 all-time is incorrect. Tiller's first game was a 36-22 loss to Toledo.
was toledo in the mac at that time?

answer: yes they were.

anyways, i highly doubt anyone has ever lost to 2+ MAC teams in a season. In fact, very few have probably ever played 2 MAC teams in a season..

Purdue has. Playing two MAC teams and a 1-aa has been Tiller's scheduling strategy for most of the decade.

It's the only reason Purdue has played in bowl games the last two years.

Painter might be in the running for the mid-major Heisman if he had chosen to attend a MAC school.

According to Aaron, ancient cave drawings show pictures of dinosaurs and Purdue beating top 25 teams. (just messin' with you Aaron. :D )

Seems like quite a few teams pad up on MAC schools, especially the lower level ones. Figured, that as bad as some of the lower level teams have been, that it had been a possibility.

The post wasn't directed at you Cam. Just in general. I'm not sure how any Purdue fan can make fun of IU right now and vice versa. I think the bucket game is going to be the ugliest college football game played all year.

Well, we are rivals. IU people are making fun of a preseason top 10 and BT favorite team. It happens. A little friendly ribbing never hurt anyone.

I still am shocked that IU lost to two MAC schools, albeit two good ones. I really thought IU was turning a corner towards respectability. This season has brought some doubts. As its also brought doubts about Purdue maintaining its respectability.

The Bucket Game will either be 65-64 or 2-0.

That's true. I guess I feel like both are teams are so sad that by ribbing each other we have to actually think about football. Ouch. Can't this season just die?

Totally agree with your last 3 lines.

Compared to the Washington vs Wash St Apple Cup game, the Bucket game will look like the BCS NC game.

Was Toledo ranked at the time? That would explain the loss.

We did win a bowl game that year. Over a ranked opponent. And we won 9 games.
