So you are saying that the BEST CASE SCENARIO was that ND fumbles the ball and gets sacked? And I'm the homer that only goes along Purdue lines? Are you kidding me? It would have been 3rd and goal from inside the 5?!?!?! Clausen wouldn't have been running a rushed play, THERE WERE 38 SECONDS LEFT!!!! 38 seconds is an eternity to run a single play. Thinking that the original play would have run the clock down is down right stupid, and then even if that happened, they would have had the same exact amount of time to run the second play, which we didn't stop. Without the TD, ND scores with 10ish seconds. At least with the TO, we have a chance, albeit slim chance. Better than nothing IYAM. Edited by dçamden03, Sep 29 2009, 06:05 AM.

The 2003 was by and far the best team of the Tiller era. Fluke loss to Bowling Green, an easy missed FG in regulation to lose to OSU, and an OT loss to UGA. The UM loss was the only one that was legit. Absolutely pathetic. I'll take that team 9 out of 10 times over the Rose Bowl team. |

We stopped them 3 straight times. I guess a 4th is out of the question. I see goal line stands every week. If Hope wanted to save time the time then start calling timeouts earlier. The TO was a panic move. |

DC, No you pig headed fuck. I am saying best case after the run (ND) gets a play off with 22 seconds to go. That is even if Jimmy spikes it. I then substituted what happened in 1999 in the mix to show you how it could have played out. Maybe if ND runs a play Jimmy trips or the snap is high. The pressure was on them to get to the line and get a play off. That is stress and increases the odds of a mistake. Once again DC you are correct greatest TO call in the history of football. Hope is a genius because he called TO. |

Not by defenses that give up 30 ppg to MAC teams. |

Ahhh, resort to name calling. Very mature. The play goes off with 22 seconds left, with a 5 yard field, the play will last less than 10 seconds. That means at the least there are 12 seconds left to run the last play. Another 7-10 seconds, and ND scores the game winning TD with 2-5 or so seconds left. We have to return the KO to win the game? And thats a better scenario than what Hope created? So you wanted us to bank on ND making a mistake to end the game? Thats what we were supposed to play for? Clausen tripping or their center making a bad snap? The '99 game was great, but you can't bank on stuff like that happening. |

DC - I'm wondering what you feel is the percentage chance that ND would have scored from inside the 5 if Purdue wouldn't have called TO. You keep saying how low the chance was of Purdue stopping them and how a score was virtually guarenteed. Just wondering what you think that chance actually was. 75%? 80? 90%? 99%? |

Inside the 5 with our defense? Somewhere in the 80-90% range. They just marched down the field on us at will, what were we going to do to stop them? Hell, I think we should have called a TO after the 3rd and 14 play. You can't just keep on letting them abuse us, we needed to get organized ourselves. Edited by dçamden03, Sep 29 2009, 08:32 AM.

Just throwing it out there, you do know a TO last longer that the break with an incompletion. The TO allowed them to go to sidelines and plan for the next 2 plays. No TO and fat chuck has to at least hurry and call it from the sidelines. And that point in the game in made more sense to try to keep the the pressure on the offense and hope our D came through. Was it a small chance? yes. but it sure as fuck was higher than us scoring with 30 secs left. |

The thought that ND had to be in a hurry makes no sense to me at all. There were 38 seconds left!!! Getting the call in and running a play with time left was not any hurry at all. They just abused us down the field, and you thought we had a chance to keep them from gaining 5 yards in two plays? Hope saw what was happening on the field, and planned ahead. As Purdue fans, we should be more upset that we didn't send any pressure on either 3rd or 4th down play. That was an absolute mistake. |

WHATEVER! Come on already guys, geez. My instinct at the time it was called was WTF????????????? Just like everyone else's, but then again we are not D1 football coaches. So, it was a tough call to make, thats why they get paid the money they do. Did it affect the outcome? Maybe. Would I have preferred they didn't call it? Yes. Was it the right call to make? In hindsight, I'd say I understand why we called it but I still don't agree. But, then again, like I said, I am not a coach. There are only 2 things that matter. First is, we lost. There is much to improve upon and much to build upon. All in all, I think we played a decent game but there is obvious room for improvement (both on the field and on the sideline). Second, this play is long gone, over. I assure you the staff and the team are dissecting it, along with the whole game, second by second and trying to learn from it. This is what we need at this point in time in the program. As long as we still make forward progress in the development of this program then we should all be satisfied. Last time I checked, we sure as hell played a lot better against ND this year than last. |

Careful what you wish for. You wished the same about Painter and he appears in good position to abuse IU for years to come. And Colletto went on to coach the Gomers :rofl: Edited by BoilerVision, Sep 29 2009, 10:59 AM.
