WEST LAFAYETTE — The Purdue Boilermakers got a Texas sized whooping from some Texas boyz on Saturday night as the TCU Horned Frogs came rolling through Ross-Ade Stadium like a tornado. When the storm ended and the smoke cleared the Boilers had taken a 34-13 beat down in the middle of the street in front of Big Momma, Uncle LeRoy and cousin Man-Man nem.
With Elijah Sindelar, who actually led the FBS in passing yards with 932 after the first two games of the season, out with a concussion. We already knew that the Boilers would struggle to get things going offensively. Redshirt freshman Jack Plummer stepped in and completed 13 of 29 passes for 181 yards but threw two interceptions. However, Plummer wasn’t the problem.
The Purdue defense got drug up and down the field in the run game. TCU running back Darius Anderson showed up in the full clown suit complete with the water spitting flower as he straight CLOWNED the Purdue defense. Ole boy finished with 179 yards rushing and 2 touchdowns on just 16 carries. As a team they finished with 346 yards rushing on just 58 carries. They had piled up 160 yards on the ground in the first half alone. That’s NUTS!!!
The Boilermakers finished the night with a 23 yards rushing on 25 carries. You do the math playa!!! After the game coach Jeff Brohm had this to say, “They took us to the woodshed. It should hurt us and see what we’re made of. It doesn’t matter who we are missing or not, we have to play better. We obviously gave up too many yards in the run game, gave up too many yards in the zone read game. But we didn’t help out our offense early on and as we got it going longer, it became a little rough for us.”
Let’s keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! The only thing you can do about last night is to forget last night ever happened. Burn the tape and keep it movin’. That’s it. The Purdue defense got completely embarrassed in front of Big Momma and she doesn’t want to talk about this morning. They wet the bed so now just turn over the mattress and keep it movin’! Stop me when I start lyin’!
