The line "Toledo is strong, especially at Linebacker" makes me completely disregard this.

Purdue beating Ohio in West Lafayette is an upset?

I understand Purdue is a Big 10 basement dweller, but I don't think many Bobcat fans are counting on a win here.

Rocket units are ranked in the MAC:
QB#1
RB#5
WR#1
OL#3
DL#3
LB#3
DB #5
ST#3

Adding players like Wilson, Crider, and Patterson to the LB Corp really improves it. I look for Blue to have an All MAC type year.

we'll see. Toledo gets our biggest veteran LB back from injury and add in a RS and 2 well regarded frosh so there looks like more depth. woodley is very good when fresh but got worn down in some games last year with no backup to spell him. it's football. if you have backups who can handle their assignments, make the routine play and give giye a breather, then your starters look a lot better.

i always appreciate how Ohio has capable backups to fill in. their starters are sometimes no better than decent but they have a lot of guys who can do their job and make fundamental plays.

Remember:

NIU a few years back totally blew them out.....

yeah this guy is a dumb ass. if we win, it will be an upset, no matter how bad Purdue might be.
