eagletx {l Wrote}:Personally, I think BC should go fundamentally boring, playing a traditional Big Ten three yards (or in Dillon's case, 13 yards) and a cloud of dust and give Oline a chance to mature and flex their muscle. I don't think the easy lifting of the first two games helped the maturation process much, and given Purdue depends on their throw game, why not just dominate time of possession and keep it simple. Let the big dog (Dillon) eat, and mix in just enough throws to keep Purdue honest.

But then again, this is Addazio, and straightforward gamesmanship management is not exactly his forte. He may just get a little intoxicated with a little success and start thinking he's coaching 'Bama.....


This was pretty much the game plan for Wake. Im all for crapping on the guy but worrying he's turning into Don Coryell seems a stretch.


People shit on Loeffler's play calling but the guy knows when to go in the bag of tricks.
I am 100% confident they are saving stuff for FSU, VT, Clemson, Miami which is what you want. You don't want a good opponent to have film of your entire playbook. We've been pretty vanilla on offense so far which was surprising to me a little bit in the fact that Daz didn't hit the panic button last weekend and go full fucktard against wake when simple runs and PA passes were enough to beat wake.

true now, but at the beginning of the year I don't think anyone could imagine the dumpster fire that FSU would become. that said, I'm assuming they will turn it around by the time we play them.

You are assuming Willie Taggert is a better than awful coach. That is a stupid assumption.

Wake is a better football team than FSU. I expect FSU to have mailed it in by the time BC plays them, just like last year.

Good point. I keep forgetting he is their coach. Still don't know how he got that job considering FSU's past success.
He sucked at Oregon.
Will Taggart be FSU's Spaz? If so, that would be great for BC!

Are any of you deviants traveling to lower Indiana to attend this game? I will be there with my whalepants on and I need to know if I should be wearing my nametag, too.

I will admit that I am excited to attend this game unrelated to having my IQ artificially inflated by relative comparison to the local population. It has been a long time since I saw the Eagles play in a game in a role other than doormat or spoiler. :banana :chewbanka

Purdue, one of last year's biggest surprise improvements, sits a 0-€”3 after a loss to Missouri. How did we get here?

Purdue has a horrendous, horrendous defense. BC will win another shootout. But I would not lay the 6.5 based on how ST are playing.

I'm going to guess that line accounts for the horrendous special teams. I suspect if BC plays clean, Purdue will not stop the offense, and BC's D will be better than they were against the 500 yards on 125 plays death by a thousand cuts on fast forward offense Wake uses to lose close to good teams.

They need to kick it away from Moore. I do not feel good about special team coverage.

Why? We shutdown Wake’s standout return man.
I would be more worried about run defense if I were you. That’s the true weakness of this team besides FG tries and PATs.

Run defense is fine. Wake ran a million plays.

He did have one good punt return but it got called back for a block in the back.
Our kickoff guy was much better against Wake.

Far more worried about the kicks involving snapping and blocking.
