So..Purdue
I'd love to chalk this up as an easy win, but I don't think there is such a thing with this team. Game is on the road, which is also scary. Ease my fears. Or don't. Tell me what you think.

Somehow Justin Siller will make a miraculous recovery, be able to run, and go Siller 2008 on us.  This time though we have Tate and Denard and some non-freshman offensive weapons.  They have no one else on offense.  I suggest we put three people on Siller (Gordon, Vinopal and MM) and let the other 8 deal with the rest of the Purdue offense.

Seems like Oregon does, even though part of me looks at Chip Kelly every time and says: "A$$hole".  I like the aggressive play call and it seems to be a very tactical move as whatever team they're playing has a noticeable drop in enthusiasm after he goes for 2.  Still think he's an a$$.

As it turns out, he's a lot better than we thought after watching him strafe Northwestern too.  Purdue, on the other hand, has played whichever QB we're likely to see and the results have not been good.

Unless Siller gets healthy and plays QB, in which case dammit.

Yeah, but this time we have stats to back it up.  Purdue averages 4.7 yards per attempt - only four teams in the past six years have been that bad.

Purdue will throw the ball all over the field and make Michigan's defense make open field tackles.  The good news is that they have one QB who can run but not throw and one who can throw but not run...I think Michigan will win 45-31.
