Purdue Defense
by DrPeterV on Sat Sep 26, 2009 10:28 pm
Just like Spaz and Co., they play the prevent defense with a 4 point lead and 3:20 to go. Result? Clausen drives down the field with wide open receivers and tons of time to throw, ND scores with 24 seconds to play. I can't imagine what Purdue fans are feeling right now. Oh wait, I'm a BC fan, yes I can.

Don't worry, Spaz will follow his mentor's lead and pull out all the stops for that game. He knows how to keep the whalepants crowd (and Gene) happy. Meaningless nonconference games forever, Orange Bowl never.

Charlie Weis is an awful, awful, awful coach. That said, Clausen is a very good college quarterback.

I agree, but the worst thing is that Purdue had the game more or less in hand if they stick to their game strategy. They had just held ND to two three and outs, and then ND marches down the field and scores. Just bad coaching, and too similar to what I see out of BC these days.

Amen, BC would have been undefeated with Clausen at the helm last year.

Ok... first... totally agree on the prevent. ND couldn't do ANYTHING in the second half. NADA. Purdue suddenly decided to go prevent and ND's offense was suddenly teh awesome.
Second... I have never seen a worst coaching decision in my life than to call timeout after ND got caught running the ball on 2nd down with 30 to play and no timeouts.

Holy Crap!!! I'm trying to find discussion on the most mind-numbingly stupid time out called since Chris Webber, and all I am getting are fluff pieces about what a miraculous comeback ND had and how they are the best ever again.

I would rather have Floyd and the Golden Taint than Clausen. Their TE is very good as well.
At least we are not Purdue fans this morning. What an abortion!

What'll be worse. Being Purdue fans this morning? Or being BC fans the morning after the game in which our coaches have watched game tape and determined that not blitzing and soft coverage is the best possible strategy for playing ND?

Rudolph is an awesome weapon ate tight end. Tate is also a pretty sick WR. And yes, Clauson is very good. They have a very very good offense, but that timeout by Purdue gave them the game....I have no idea what they were thinking - even if they didn't like the personnel they had in they were giving ND an extra play. STUPID.

If you blitz Claussen, he is not a very good QB. He is only a good passer when he has no pressure. Nothing new here.

What a cosmically boneheaded call that time out was. Any idiot knew that ND was going to spike the ball anyway. A totally brainless move.
