Yeah, no. Purdue played ND with a frosh QB and NO Cierre Wood. Wood was huge in the 2nd half last night. The other two teams Purdue played are to put it simply, terrible. We won’t find out how good Purdue is until UM comes to West Lafeyette.

If Purdue controls Denard then I think we can talk. Denard put up 38 on this vaunted defense last year.

MSU has proven itself against top flight opponents. Purdue has not. That is my point.

I think EMU is going to see a significantly better defense this week. MSU has superior LB’s and DB’s to Purdue.
