A look at why the FDU loss might be just as important as any game in the program's history.
A sour ending doesn't make the season any less sweet.
The NCAA National Title game saw our Boilermakers handled on the perimeter by UConn's wings, as the Huskies limited Purdue to only 7 three pointers attempted, all while Zach Edey got whatever he wanted inside on Donovan Clingan (by Dan Hurley's design). But Purdue won the most games in its basketball history, Edey swept every National Player of the Year award for the second straight year (the first time in over 50 years, since Bill Walton at UCLA), Matt Painter and a roster that almost entirely returned completed a redemptive season a year after the FDU loss (arguably the worst loss in March Madness history).
And, oh yeah, our Purdue Boilermakers made the Final Four for the first time since 1980, and won a National Semifinal game for the first time since 1969.
By all measures, this could have been the greatest season in Purdue basketball's history, led by possibly Purdue's greatest player in its history, led by possibly Purdue's greatest coach in its history. Let's enjoy it all, without worrying about what anyone else says.

Matt Painter is undefeated in the Final Four - Purdue dispatches with #11 NC State in an ugly, despite a poor Braden Smith game and a handful of turnovers. The redemption journey is nearly complete, and it's real: Zach Edey swept every Player of the Year award, Purdue won the Big Ten, and our Boilermakers are playing for a National Championship on Monday night - underdogs for the first time all year against Danny Hurley's dominant UConn Huskies.

Some Saturday gameday QuickCast thoughts before Purdue’s Final Four game against NC State:
What’s the match-up look like? Where are Purdue’s advantages? Where are NC States? Also, who is the most-sturdy BSer and who has a baby face? All of this and more discussed today on the Not-So-QuickCast.
It happened. Zach Edey and Dalton Knecht traded haymakers, threes weren't falling, Tennessee was playing the physical style of game they thrive in, the game got tight - and, this time, Matt Painter and our Boilermakers came out on top.
The Final Four ceiling for Gene Keady's program has been broken, a potentially destructive FDU became a footnote in a longer story, and the catharsis felt by Purdue fans everywhere wasn't just felt in Detroit's Little Caesars Arena - it was felt by Boilermaker fans across the world, by those still here and lifelong diehards who have passed but are held closely in our memories this week.
Sports shouldn't mean this much. It's objectively stupid that they do. But moments like this make the "Purdue family" feel like something beyond just a marketing ploy that every school (and soulless company) preaches but doesn't practice. It feels real, because this is real - this is a family that extends beyond what's normally felt by fans rooting for the same laundry, and it's wonderful that something as meaningless as a basketball game can bring us together like this.
Whew. Come talk it out with us. We promise to (mostly) hold it together.

Purdue battled through a somewhat ugly game, but the unthinkable (a year ago) happened: They punched their ticket to the Final Four in Phoenix. Thoughts after an amazing trip to Detroit with a stadium full of Boilermaker faithful:
Zach, Braden, Matty and Co glide to an Elite 8 in Detroit - cool, calm, and collected over Gonzaga.
The first hurdle of Purdue's potential redemption arc is cleared - the Boilermakers looked unbothered as they cleared all obstacles put forth by Grambling State and Utah State with ease. Zach Edey looked every bit the part of the two-time National Player of the Year, Fletcher Loyer continued his strong late-season play, Braden Smith ran the show but the Boilermakers didn't miss a beat while he was on the bench, Trey Kaufman-Renn had his well-deserved moment in the spotlight, and Camden Heide and Myles Colvin emerged as athletic wonders off the bench.
All this, while it didn't even look like Purdue was hitting every cylinder it could.
The opening weekend of March Madness 2024 brought no stress to Boilermaker nation, but all that means is a date with better teams in a few days. A much-improved Gonzaga awaits, with the winner of Creighton/Tennessee waiting in the wings with a trip to the Final Four on the line for all four teams known for tripping in the NCAA Tournament. Redemption awaits one of the region's semi-finalists - why can't it be us?

Purdue ROLLS through Indy and Heads to the Sweet 16. TKR sets a tone. Heide reinforces the state of things on the court. Colvin drives the point home. Everybody shows out v Utah State as Purdue goes 15-deep and scores 106 on the way to their 31st victory.
Hey, basketball shorts well above the knee are back in style so maybe the stars are aligning.
Due to a couple of losses to higher seeds, Matt Painter and Purdue are labeled as underachievers. But is it fair? Or even accurate?
Either way, Purdue ends up in the record books after the entirety of the last two seasons:
Two dominant Big Ten regular season titles, one Big Ten Tournament title, undefeated stacked nonconference schedules, two losses in Mackey Arena. Zach Edey (likely) gathering two-time National Player of the Year and Purdue's all-time scoring and rebounding records and virtually every individual award available. An overlooked barely-3-star Braden Smith emerging as one of the best point guards in the country. A supporting cast that decided to stay intact, and a coach in Matt Painter that everyone is waiting to crown as the face/voice/conscience of college basketball.
And an immortal March Madness #16-over-#1 loss to Fairleigh Dickinson University, coming a year after a Sweet 16 loss to #15 Saint Peters, which was a year after losing in the first round to #13 North Texas.

Wisconsin edges Purdue in Minneapolis, after Zach Edey sets the all-time Purdue scoring mark. A week of rest after last game’s injury scares might be the best thing before the most important tournament run of Matt Painter’s career.
New stuff on RedBubble!
Purdue gets gritty as they fight through injuries, poor shooting and abnormally-poor rebounding to beat guaranteed NCAA tourney-bound MSU.
The Boilermakers won the Big Ten with a better record than last year, and clinched another undefeated season at Mackey Arena, on the backs of Zach Edey's second National Player of the Year season (somehow even better than the last), an All American season from Braden Smith, a perfect transfer addition in Lance Jones, the winningest senior class in Purdue history, a coach in Matt Painter saying all the right things, and a perfect cast of complementary players.
It looks like, no matter what happens in the Big Ten Tournament, Purdue is set up for a favorable March Madness run as a #1 seed through Indianapolis and Detroit. What could possibly go wrong?

Purdue beat Wisconsin on Senior afternoon as Edey leads the way (again). Appreciating this landmark senior class during their last outing in Mackey Arena.
Edey toughs it out, Loyer, Smith and Gillis bomb from deep and Purdue’s defense carries a victory to the Beef House.
Purdue holds on v MSU to guarantee at least part of their 26th B1G basketball title. Edey and Smith play large - and Fletch reappears after a tough month.
J Money and BDowd Talk about the appreciation of Zach Edey, college basketball parity, court storming, expanding the NCAA Tournament and the possible death of bluebloods?

Zach Edey puts on a dominant 35 point + 15 rebound performance, the Boilers withstand a late Wolverine run (and scoring drought), and Purdue fans made Crisler sound like Mackey Arena as Purdue wins at Michigan 84-76.
Oh, hey, new stickers and illustrations are available now!
Edey, Heide, Jones, Smith, Gillis…everyone was knocking shots down, Mackey was rockin’, and the Boilers rolled to their 24th win.
It isn’t the end of the world…but losing to a team that just fired their coach kinda sucks. Purdue is still up by a game in the B1G race, if you’re into that sort of thing.
How many handsome dudes can you fit into a podcast? We’re not sure, as we haven’t hit the limit yet.
Minnesota shot the lights out for a half before Purdue took control in Mackey. Boilers improve to 23-2 and now prepare for a road game v Coachless aOSU.
Edey’s final games at Mackey will have come and gone soon. What’s it all mean to us as Purdue fans/alums?
Purdue swept IU with ease by beating them by 20 points at Mackey earlier tonight. Purdue leads the B1G by 2.5 games and is 22-2.
In short:
Purdue sweeps IU, Edey hits a three, and Mackey faithful get chicken.
Ready to prove doubters/haters wrong…ready for a different ending to this season…QuickCast style.
Purdue shoots poorly from deep, except Lance Jones, and finds a way to win v. #6 Wisconsin in Madison. They now lead the B1G and have improved to 21-2.
Purdue plays Wisconsin on Sunday Afternoon, and it can't come soon enough. Let’s quiet all the ref talk.
Purdue improves to 20-2 as Edey/Jones play BIG down the stretch. Beating Northwestern is tough for this Boiler squad…good win…but mercy. Here are some thoughts.
A LIVE postgame Handsome Hour, immediately following Purdue's always-harrowing trip to the RAC in Piscataway to play Steve Pikiell's Rutgers squad. Purdue finally breaks Rutgers' win streak, Zach Edey eclipses 2000 career points, but things got too close for comfort.

J and Boilerdowd get together for an actual one-hour Handsome Hour (of sorts) as they discuss the current state of the Purdue basketball program.
Purdue improves to 18-2, beats up on Michigan, gives the starters some time to take a deep breath and played 15 players on the way to a resounding victory.
Purdue didn’t shoot great, but doubled-up Iowa on the glass to improve to 17-2 on the season. Here are some thoughts…

Big Zed’s 30/20 night, Smith’s 11 assists and an incredible five minutes propels Purdue to a cruise to victory in Mackey. Purdue is now 15-2.
Tominaga and Mast beat up on Purdue as Hoiberg stole Paint’s lunch money. Purdue loses by 16 in Lincoln and falls to 14-2. Here’s me trying to figure out why the elite don’t beat Purdue, but the non-elite have their number:
TKR’s massive effort helps Purdue fight through some self-inflicted wounds and some outside pressures to beat the #9-ranked Illini in Mackey Arena. Here are some 2am post-game thoughts.
A deep-dive into college football's current power structure, problems that threaten its foundations, and a path to a better future.
Your #1 Boilers beat Maryland in College Park by 14 points and it felt like more than that.
Purdue improves to 12-1 and readies themselves for the real B1G rockfight season by beating EKU.
Nic Scourton has entered the portal…this one was a not-so-happy Christmas surprise, at least for Purdue fans.
Purdue communications/media ninja and local media mogul, Derek Schultz, sits down with BDowd to talk about the win over Arizona, recent Pacers success and names some dudes.
Purdue handled the Dolphins 100-57 as Heide and Colvin played significant minutes. Purdue improves to 34-0 in the Pre-con over the last three seasons in a fun one.
Merry Christmas, fellow Boilers.
Purdue improves to 10-1 on the season with a win over number one Arizona in Indianapolis.
Some hate us…that’s alright. Purdue is playing with house money in Indy, Northwestern sucks and the NCAA continues to wander aimlessly through the wilderness. Here’s a QuickCast about this stuff.
Purdue improved to 9-1 after clawing a win out versus Alabama in Toronto, 92-86. Bama’s length, athleticism and offensive philosophy is a tough matchup for Purdue…and because of that, Purdue had to fight back after digging multiple double-digit deficits to find a way in Zach Edey’s hometown. Edey matched Alabama’s Sears with 35 points as Smith had 27.
This one felt like a Sweet 16-type of match-up in the neutral site versus a team that looks like a top-20 squad…good win for the Good Guys.
Fran earns a tech, Purdue earns a dub…as the Boilers played and looked angry and motivated. Purdue rolled 87-68 and improved to 8-1 on the season.
Purdue is now the #4 team in America as they head to the tail end of the non-con. Tonight was fun.
Purdue fights ‘til the end and finds a way to beat IU for their fourth win of the season. Hud Card grinds it out, Thieneman grabs two ints and Nic Scourton blow up the final play to help the Boilers hold on.
Thanks to Edey’s workhorse mentality and Smith’s big shots down the stretch, Purdue dances through the deepest Maui Invitational field ever. Purdue will be #1, yet again on Monday. Ho hum.
The injury bug hit Purdue football hard and rendered the offense inept against Northwestern, despite a historic back-to-back 300 yard team rushing game from the Boilermaker backfield (and quarterbacks). Meanwhile, basketball took on the first of a behemoth field in #11 Gonzaga at the Maui Invitational in Honolulu - and Lance Jones, Braden Smith, and Big Zach Edey led them to a huge first round win.

Purdue gutted out an ugly win v. Tennessee all why fighting UT, themselves and the officials. The Boilers improve to 5-0 while winning 67-71 in the Semis in Honolulu.
Purdue beats Gonzaga for the second time in as many years. This time, they win by 10 points.
No Hud Card, No Nic Scourton…No Victory. Purdue struggled to finish drives as they fell 23-15 in Evanston.
Purdue football showed new offensive life in a wonderfully satisfying thrashing of PJ Fleck's Minnesota, as the running backs, Hudson Card, and the offensive line put together their best performance of the year. All while the Boilermaker basketball non-conference season kicks into gear as Purdue welcomes Xavier to the friendly confines of Mackey Arena on Monday.
And, of course, the coaching silly season has begun.

Matt Painter’s second-highest rated recruiting class is signed…The six man class should make immediate impact.
Post-game wrap-up and look back at Purdue’s win over Xavier. The Good Guys improve to 3-0 and get ready to travel to Hawaii to play Gonzaga next week.
Hudson Card was dealing today as Purdue looked like a team that should be better than 3-7. It was a beautiful afternoon in God’s Country as Coach Walters’ squad renewed some hope…here are some thoughts on the game.
Edey, Smith, Jones and Colvin all combined for big, timely plays as Purdue cruised to an 87-57 victory. #3 Purdue is now 2-0 on the young season.
Football needs momentum to end the season. Basketball needs 5 months of antacids for us fans watching.
Purdue’s defense fought hard as the offense continued to struggle in Ann Arbor as Purdue lost 41-13. The losing streak is up to four-straight. Here’s the wrap-up.
Purdue football's defense had a (fairly) good day at Nebraska, but the lack of offensive execution was apparent as the Boilermakers slip to 2-6. Michigan is having a pretty weird season off-the-field, but they look every bit the part of a champion during gameplay, and maybe Purdue should just take an extra bye week before a very important end-of-season stretch.
Also, Purdue basketball played a very cool charity exhibition game at Arkansas for United Way Arkansas' tornado relief efforts. Purdue lost that game in overtime, and internet reactions were predictably normal and sane.

Purdue cruised to a 98-51 victory earlier tonight in Mackey…their final pretend game of the pre-season.
Purdue falls to 2-6 in football after losing to Nebraska and to 0-0 after losing to Arkansas in a scrimmage.
Purdue plays Nebraska on Saturday…so instead of a Handsome Hour, I had a one-man party.
Listen, Purdue might not be a perfect team juuust quite yet, but even on an off-day this reloading Boilermaker roster couldn't make even this McCord-led Ohio State team sweat. Ryan Walters begins his tenure at Purdue 2-5, which is just below where we hoped Purdue would be by this time of the season - not a disaster, but not great.
Come listen to our LIVE Handsome Hour on YouTube every Monday at 9pm as we talked through the good (Mockobee's night, emerging receiving targets, the offense between the 20s, Jenkins and Scourton) and the bad (the offense close to the area on the field that results in points being scored, kicking field goals that results in points being scored, the general scoring of points by any means necessary, and even more injuries to the offensive line).
Also, we spend like the first 40 minutes talking about basketball and the first AP Top 25 of the year, and Purdue's upcoming season of terror.

Another frustrating loss, in the Fresno State / Syracuse style this season, as Iowa's defense bullied the Boilermakers and found just enough space in Ryan Walters' defense to eek out 20 points. Coverage sacks baited Hudson Card into taking a ton of pressure, a lack of offensive playmaking creativity , and a few devastating injuries to an already-thin Purdue roster are not making things easy for this young coaching staff.Join us LIVE every Monday at 9pm as we try to talk ourselves through another game slipping narrowly through Purdue's fingers, and preview this upcoming murderer's row stretch against Ohio State, at Nebraska, and at Michigan.
Purdue struggled to find offensive rhythm and had a couple of defensive break-downs that were difference-makers. Purdue loses 20-14 at Iowa.
Ryan Walters first home victory as Purdue head coach poetically comes against his old squad, Bert Bielema's Illinois. We talk through the gameday coaching changes, the newfound offensive creativity with Deion Burks, worrisome injuries, the Iowa rivalry and the Brian Ferentz Scoring Countdown (and, oh yeah, what might be the best defense in the country).

Round 1 of Bert Bielema vs Ryan Walters goes to the young Boilermaker coach, as Purdue comes away with a resounding Homecoming 2023 victory vs Illinois. What did we learn from the game?
A sluggish start and continued third down defensive woes cost Purdue its 17th straight game against Wisconsin, and a third straight home loss for Ryan Walters. The stress is real, the transition year is real, and we've got to pull ourselves together as fans here a bit. We go through the first 3 years of every Purdue coach since Jim Young in 1977, highlight the other Purdue-peer programs who have hired a young first-time head coach, and try to address every very real concern about this year’s roster that we can.
But not before we declare Homecoming vs Bert's (and formerly Walters') Illinois a MUST WIN. Or do we? Join us LIVE at 9pm, tonight and every fall Monday after the Boilermakers take add a few more stress miles onto our hears.

Purdue fell to 1-3 and lost again to generational bugaboo, Wisconsin, yesterday. Here’s the wrap-up:
A second consecutive penalty-filled loss to Dino Babers' Syracuse and the first game filled with unforced turnovers has Purdue fans a bit shook, leading up to a Friday night Ross Ade showdown with a Wisconsin team still trying to find its offensive identity.

Purdue loses its second-straight game to Syracuse as Garrett Schrader shreds Purdue’s defense and Hud and Mock were loose with the ball. Here are a few delayed thoughts about the game.
The first win of the Ryan Walters era at Purdue was an eventful one, and the BS East contingent was on-site to document every last raindrop and lightning strike. We also take much-needed detour rants to address the nonsense from the rest of the Big Ten (which, yes, includes Nebraska and Michigan State spotlights).

Thanks to a rocket-powered second half, and the dynamic duo of Zach Edey and Braden Smith, Purdue beats Penn State 76-63.

Purdue hasn’t hit more than 30% of their three point shots…but they do the difficult stuff and keep winning.
A QuickCast look at our Basketball Boilers ranking and its trappings…and the ongoing transition in the football offices in Kozuch.
A new Purdue football era begins, and it belongs to Ryan Walters (and a $6M assistant coach salary pool). Is this the path Mike Bobinski imagines that can fuel Purdue's mini-leap to the Wisconsin-tier of the Big Ten? Meanwhile, Matt Painter's era of Purdue basketball continues as Purdue reaches #1 for the second consecutive year. It's most definitely an interesting time to be a Boilermaker fan.

Choosing Walters is a risk for Bobinski and Purdue, but it’s undeniably a swing for the fences.
Ryan Walters, former Illinois DC is now Purdue’s next Football coach and Matty’s hardwood Boilers are #1 in all of the land.

His agent may or may not have made a generous contribution to the BS Search Firm to get him on this lsit.
A program-builder with high-octane offenses and three decades of head coaching experience seems not bad.
A few thoughts and candidates as I look ahead to this afternoon’s Handsome Happy Hour.
Click here for the full list of coaching candidates identified by the BS Search Firm.
There’s basically no chance; he’d rather build an offense in Miami than in West Lafayette. Right?
A man who when he’s coaching always looks like he’s doing long division in his head while hungover.
Only 43 years old with 12 years of head coaching experience, an 81-57 record, multiple awards, and a longtime BS favorite.
High-powered offenses, adaptable schemes, tough in the trenches, and a decade of championship runs. He tops the list for me.
Six DIII Championships, one MAC title, and has rebuilt two FBS programs. That enough for you?
Purdue football played in (and lost) their first Big Ten Title game, and is headed to Orlando for a Citrus Bowl matchup with LSU. Louisville's head coach Satterfield bolted for a rival 90 minutes north in Cincinnati, leaving a very loud and Purdue-relevant vacancy. Message boards and Twitter are once again at the mercy of Jeff Brohm’s potential homecoming decision, and we work through how the decision could be made.

Purdue dominates Minnesota with a balanced attack as well as a Zach Edey night that’s already among the best we’ve seen from a big man at Purdue.
Purdue had a good gameplan and fought on both sides of the ball, but lost to a very good team.
Purdue is playing with house money in Indy, AOC is undoubtedly in the Cradle, and my takeaway from the Florida State basketball victory.
VB opens NCAA play against familiar opponents, facing Tennessee at 4 PM Friday and possibly Louisville on Saturday at 6. Both matches will be on ESPN+.
Another familiar foe welcomed Purdue to Florida for the B1G/ACC Challenge…Purdue won 79-69 after playing with fire for about 35 minutes. They shot poorly, but crashed the glass and hit their freebies; that helped seal it.
A legendarily packed Handsome Hour for a Thanksgiving weekend full with three trophies, four victories, a fresh top 5 ranking in basketball, and a first-ever football trip to Indy for the Big Ten Title against Michigan. Plus all the joys of the coaching carousel silly season.

Purdue has just beaten four-straight tournament teams, two of them were in the top-10 on a neutral court. Purdue also just rolled through a tournament by winning by an average by 18.5pts…in a rebuild year. Not too shabby. Purdue is the Phil Knight Invitational Champ, and will soon be highly ranked…here are some thoughts.
Soap cleans up as Jeff, AOC, Sizzle, Cory and company gut out a win in Bloomington. This one has major implications for our Boilermakers…here are my thoughts. What a weekend…so far!
We bring in our handsome buddy Zach Osterman (@ZachOsterman) from the IndyStar to preview the 2022 Old Oaken Bucket game, IU's two-year football hangover, Tom Allen's future, and the perfect steakhouse dinner with Matt Painter and Mike Woodson. Then J Money and Aneesh fret about Purdue's very good shot at the prestigious Big Ten West (partial) title, and reflect on where Purdue is now when compared to preseason expectations.
It was cold, it was windy, it wasn’t pretty. BUT, beating Northwestern at Ross-Ade hadn’t happened since 2007, so that matters. Sure, B1G officials left their mark on their game…which they do every game, but Brohm’s Boys gutted out the victory and improve to 7-4 after winning 17-9.
Purdue has a clear path to (at least a share of) a Big Ten West title - all they have to do is beat two overmatched teams in Northwestern and Indiana. A Handsome Hour Happy Hour about everything that could possibly go wrong along the way - and early season basketball thoughts.

Payne Durham, Devin Mockabee, Jeff Brohm and company came up big in Champaign to improve to 6-4 on the season…here are my thoughts on the game.
Zach Edey had 30pts and 11 rebounds, but his teammates shot like dogmeat from deep. And yet, Purdue improved to 2-0.
Braden Smith’s 7 steals, Zach Edey’s 17 rebounds (six blocked shots) and Flech Loyer’s 17 points lead the way as as the new-look Boilers begin the 2022-23 season 1-0.
It might not be overreaction nor a knee-jerk statement to say that someone needs to be fired and changes need to be made in the wake of Saturday’s game…see what I mean in today’s QC.
Purdue allows an RB to rush for 200 yards and allows Petras to look like a B1G QB and Brian Ferentz to look like a B1G OC, all while Brohm’s play-calling leaves Purdue fans scratching their heads. O’Connell joins the pain train by throwing two picks without adding a TD. Windy weather, bad loss, Good Guys fall to 5-4.

Someday…this will change. Until then, I need to be reminded that winning against Wisconsin isn’t an option.
Bizarro Purdue continues to win close games despite giving up big plays, with the B10 West division title coming down to the well-expected race between Illinois and the Boilermakers. All Purdue has to do is win on the road versus Wisconsin. What could go wrong?

AOC and MockTruck lead Purdue to a 43-37 victory over Nebraska. Purdue’s defense dials up 4 sacks and 2 interceptions…but major lapses kept it close. Purdue improves to 5-2 and 3-0 in October as they prepare for Wisconsin. Let’s look at what unfolded last night in a sold-out Ross-Ade Stadium.
Purdue is a heavy favorite, which we don’t love, as Nebraska comes to town. Here are a few pre-game thoughts.
Can we interest you in weekly heart attacks, nonsense penalties by both teams called by egregious refereeing, allowing points at the end of every half, a suddenly stout rushing defense paired with a shockingly effective rushing offense, and at least one receiver making opponents look like children trying to tackle Derrick Henry?

Payne Durham (and his pal Mershawn) made the play of the day in College Park, Maryland as Purdue improved to 4-2 by beating the Terps 31-29. Maryland looks like a solid bowl team and winning on the road is always tough…and this was another big win. Let’s talk about it.
Purdue narrowly avoided an upset at Illinois and swept Rutgers to remain unbeaten in conference play; after holding on to edge Iowa, they’ll face Wisconsin Saturday with a chance at their best Big Tenteen start in 38 years, when they went 6-0 and finished 10-3.

It’s Friday Night, and if The Last Boy Scout taught us anything, it’s that Friday night’s a great night for football. Join us for the predicto and obscure bits about 1991 movies.
Lo and behold, it’s a feature-length podcast from your friends at Boiled Sports. They discuss the 2020 football season to date, what’s ahead, what’s been fun, what’s been a letdown and plenty of other stuff over the course more than a handsome hour.
Purdue showed up physically, but perhaps not quite mentally Saturday evening, slogging their way through a loss to the Wildcats.
In a quick, post game audio QuickCast Michael discusses the three main takeaways from the game: AOC’s limitations as a starting QB, Purdue’s failure to launch the running game, and Purdue’s defense doing a lot of bending and breaking.
Unbelievably gorgeous feature image from @BoilerFootball, who does their best work in the rain.
We’re strictly a No Cats household here at Boiled Sports, so let’s take you through our thoughts for Purdue-Northwestern this weekend as they battle for the Big Ten West. Pay no attention to the mouth-breathers out there suggesting this is a reason for realignment — Michigan and MSU suck, too, so whatever. Things go through cycles. One day even Nebraska might be good again. The only constants are Purdue passing attacks being fun and, well, Fitz having Northwestern in contention.
The football team is set to honor the 2000 team on Saturday during the Northwestern game. The basketball team is taking shape in the form of scrimmages…and Zander Horvath is a beast (you already knew).
Don’t look now, but a freight train is coming your way.
Today, I’m talking Kyle Orton & Joe Tiller, Zander Horvath v Mike Allstott, the AOC/Bell connection and how much I hate Covid and the prevent defense.
Purdue Beats Illinois 31-24 in spite of a lackluster fourth quarter. O’Connell leads the way by going 29/25 with 371 yards passing.
Illinois was without about 15 players due to Covid, Purdue was without Karlaftis, Garvins, R. Moore and Doerue, due to injury for most of the game.

It’s week 2, and as of this writing, Purdue and Illinois are still on schedule to play so let’s see what your buddies at BS have to say about things.
My game ball went to someone you might not expect, Purdue’s depth proves to be a difference-maker, Brian Brohm is 1-0 and Purdue is 1-0 for the first time since 2016. Let’s talk about it.
Purdue came from behind in the fourth quarter today, led by former walk-on Aidan O’Connell, to beat Iowa 24-20 and move to 1-0 in this unusual, Big Ten-only season. Here with the recap is your host, J Money.

It’s game week again, finally, after a mere eleven months of waiting and hoping. As b-dowd put it on our pod a few weeks ago, none of us will be totally confident until the ball is actually kicked off in front of zero screaming fans but as of right now it is looking like football 2020 will get moving tomorrow at 3:30 PM Eastern on BTN.
For this season, we may move to a pod format for the Predictos. Or maybe we won’t. We’ll see what each week brings. Which is the most 2020 way we could approach things, don’t you think?

Purdue’s new defensive coordinator, Bob Diaco, will look to quickly rebuild the linebacking corps and lean heavily on the depth of the defensive front and experienced DBackfield.
J Money, Boilerdowd, and Aneesh return to the internet airwaves to recap a very quiet uneventful offseason where Jeff Brohm and the team could finally just focus on football without distraction, Rondale Moore’s decision to return to Purdue and what might have changed to bring him back, exciting possibilities with the Version 3.0 schedule and returning roster (the QB question should be ~50th on your “Purdue Football Things To Worry About” list), and the inevitable football attendance and COVID-19 stress conversation.
All that, plus your questions (58:00): SEC network purgatory, Mike Leech and Ed Orgeron entertainment, Purdue’s Big Ten title odds amongst a world of chaos, selling Nebraska for spare parts and Boilerdowd running out of gas on the Nebraska autobahn, Brohm teams playing in moderate precipitation, Purdue passing/receiving/rushing yardage leaders, and a potential IU-Purdue doubleheader.
Also, our free idea for Purdue athletics: fill the Ross Ade stands with Breakfast Club cutouts.
Rondale Moore has opted back in for the abridged 2020 season…what’s it mean and how does it affect the supporting cast?

A few additional QuickCast thoughts - I’m Optimistic about Purdue’s basketball roster next season and the world in general as we look ahead to next season.
Boilerdowd and J reunited again late last week to record a Handsome Hour. Since you’re likely still looking for things to do, you could give it a listen. But be warned…it’s all over the place. Well, but maybe that’s to be expected — we did fill an hour about seven weeks after the last live sporting event was played so that’s a victory. In the first five minutes, you do get to hear Boilerdowd do his impression of what an F1 race sounds like, plus J dug up some old (amazing) audio of B-dowd ranting about why NASCAR sucks. That’s definitely worth your time. We also talked about music we listened to in high school, each picked four cars we’ve lusted after, and took reader questions. So maybe it’s good. You’ll need to give it a shot and let us know.
Michael comes out of retirement for a podcast appearance and invited not only his old friend Aneesh but also J to the party. They then discuss The Last Dance like all sports content producers this week and also veer into memories of the 1990s NBA. It’s more plot-less than a Smokey and the Bandit movie, but hey, you like these guys so give it a listen.
And on a more sober note, this episode is dedicated to the memory of Michael’s Uncle Jim, who passed away this week from cancer at the age of 58. F-ck cancer and prayers up, Uncle Jim.
Boilerdowd and J convened for episode 160 of the Boiled Sports Handsome Hour, which B-dowd’s father says is neither handsome nor an hour. You hurt us with your words, sir.
We give you a tight hour here, wherein we discuss Matt Haarms transferring out, Austin Burton transferring in, our thoughts on whether there will be a football season, a special birthday shout-out and much more. And if we didn’t get to your question/topic in this episode (spoiler alert: we probably didn’t), we will do our best to address them all next time. And we pledge for it not to be another month!
Boilerdowd and Little Boilerdowd on Haarms, B1G ball and look ahead at who will make impact in the fall on the gridiron.
