Handsome Hour #115: Purdue's Mid-Season Assessment

J Money, Boilerdowd, and Aneesh take moments out of their glamorous vacation-filled lives to be puzzled about how Purdue kept the Wisconsin game so close (1:00) and whether Purdue’s ridiculous rate of forced fumbles is real or random (3:00), address the last drive and how real the Badgers’ top ten ranking is and a 5-win Purdue team going to a bowl (7:00), the quarterback dilemma for Coach Brohm (13:00), the strengths and weaknesses of David Blough and Elijah Sindelar (17:00), the surprisingly few Big Ten quarterbacks who are better than Blough or Sindelar (20:00), and what’s been happening with the kickers (29:00).

We also look forward at the critical next month of games for Purdue’s bowl hopes (32:00), if we think Purdue will look past Rutgers (39:30), what would ultimately make for a ‘disappointing’ season finish (46:00), Purdue playing IU with both teams being bowl eligible (48:00), whether tattoos make you tough, and how nobody comes into the Ross Ade Thunderdome and leaves alive. We’ve always said that.
