Offensive explosions are nigh they say.

As long as Terrelle Pryor continues to play better on the road than he does at home, they might be right. Purdue has a middling defense at best and their offense is going to run into a front that discards blocks like they're covered in herpes.

Better yet, if you're betting on the good guys, is that the Boilermakers have shown an exceptional ability to fumble the mundane this season. And if anyone is a master of taking care of the mundane, it's James Patrick Tressel.

So fire up, get ready for your nooner and feel free to follow the action and provide your own commentary.

Purdue? More like PurDON'T! Am I right?

El Caballo de Sangre on 17 October 2009 - 9:10am.

Just get a nip of the dog that bit ya...

Beer mixed w/ V8 works nice - and none of you amateurs knock it till you've tried it.

Some will swear by the mimosa/Bloody Mary, but the problem there is all of a sudden you're all the way drunk again - but what the hell, it's gameday, right? Who cares when you wake up and the clock says 6:45, and it's dark, and you have a heart attack while you try to remember whether it's Saturday evening, or Sunday morning, etc...

Toledo Ben on 17 October 2009 - 9:19am.

Love the pic, guys! Hope we have a DH exp on offense today, ala the Toledo game. Go Bucks!

C on 17 October 2009 - 9:32am.

I bet you're one of those crazy bastards that drinks Clamatos aren't you?

Quick Draw on 17 October 2009 - 9:54am.

Love beer, love V8, yet I've never understood how that could work. But I'll give it a try.

Buckeye in Athens on 17 October 2009 - 10:01am.

Is this being streamed online anywhere? Unfortunately hotels in tennessee don't carry the big ten network..

flipbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 10:46am.

F the BTN.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 10:56am.

If an offensive explosion is nigh......how bad is Purdue's D?

flipbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 11:50am.

Anyone know where we can catch this on a stream?

a bag of doritos on 17 October 2009 - 12:25pm.

*controlling urge to rant about the BTN*

i doubt it. the BTN still thinks it is going to strong arm cable providers into paying to carry the BTN. so they kill all streams. you can sometimes watch the game on the BTN website...if you live outside the US.

Travis on 17 October 2009 - 12:30pm.

Great way to start the day with a LOL photoshop! Nice work, Jason. He is the silver lining in the dark cloud of offensive coaching.

Jeff at The BBC on 17 October 2009 - 12:43pm.

Live feed here - http://linksadoor.com/live_tv/...

You guys owe me

BuckeyeSki on 17 October 2009 - 12:44pm.

Heading to the bar boys. Go Bucks!

Jeff at The BBC on 17 October 2009 - 12:45pm.

Incidentally, that feed is only 4-5 seconds behind the actual TV

flipbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 12:46pm.

Excellent. Thanks.

a bag of doritos on 17 October 2009 - 12:49pm.

i just randomly found that!

if you are the source, thanks! if you would prefer not to say, thanks!

Olentangy on 17 October 2009 - 12:55pm.

How long until the first Rotel Velveeta commercial?

Jason on 17 October 2009 - 1:01pm.

Surprised we haven't seen one yet.

Olentangy on 17 October 2009 - 1:01pm.

Wow, we have a new head coach, Jim Tressle!

NorCal Buckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:03pm.

Brandon In-Saine, brought to you by Rotel

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:03pm.

Nice way to start

flipbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:04pm.

Wow. WTF was that?

Jason on 17 October 2009 - 1:04pm.

That was the offensive explosion they were speaking of.

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:04pm.

At first I thought it was a shovel pass, but nope: simple FAIL

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:05pm.

Pryor likes to give the other team a chance...........every stinkin game.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:05pm.

Only 2 1/2 years left

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:06pm.

Idiot.

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:06pm.

As usual, the defense cleans up the offense's mess.

Jason on 17 October 2009 - 1:06pm.

Damn, that's cold.

Juannieboy on 17 October 2009 - 1:07pm.

Pryor better get it together........and quick!

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:09pm.

you must see improvement that nobody else does.

Face it, without the D, we are Iowa.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:10pm.

Saine and the run blocking gets better every game.

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:10pm.

No, but I do see Joe Bauserman on the bench, and I am pleased.

Juannieboy on 17 October 2009 - 1:11pm.

The Brandon Saine show!

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:12pm.

And whose fault is it that we don't have a better backup?

flipbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:12pm.

Well that was quick.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:13pm.

Finally healthy, getting better and better

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:13pm.

I'm going to guess you'll blame it on Pryor or Tress, as usual.

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:13pm.

Good decision number one by Pryor.

Jason on 17 October 2009 - 1:15pm.

That was a a solid looking read by Pryor. Progress?

buckinnc on 17 October 2009 - 1:16pm.

fingers crossed

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:16pm.

Not bad for a defensive end.

flipbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:16pm.

This.

I'll gladly eat my share of crow after badmouthing Saine all of last year.

NorCal Buckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:17pm.

That previous pass to Saine was horrible, he made an amazing catch making TP look OK.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:18pm.

Ok......lets go end zone first play. I want to see if he can do it.

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:18pm.

The read-option was good, though, so I'm taking any progress we can get.

flipbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:18pm.

Right on cue.

NorCal Buckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:19pm.

A real pass from a quarterback might be a good direction for progress as well....

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:19pm.

Might have scored if Boren made that block.

Now we play for punt and field position.

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:20pm.

Uh, dude, we've had those, just not as consistently as we'd like.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:21pm.

Tight end was open early down the middle

Jason on 17 October 2009 - 1:21pm.

He still really struggles on passes to the backs.

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:23pm.

Again: idiot.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:23pm.

That was not a drop. Nice play by Chimdi

texasbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:23pm.

Is it just me or is the O-line getting worked?

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:23pm.

They are.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:24pm.

shocking

NorCal Buckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:25pm.

Key word, consistently. I'd accept inconsistent from a RB throwing passes, not a highly touted recruit. "Athlete" or not.

babbski on 17 October 2009 - 1:26pm.

Purdue's sideline has way more than their fair share of giant mustaches.

babbski on 17 October 2009 - 1:27pm.

Cordle's getting killed at LT.

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:27pm.

Oh crap.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:27pm.

Once again, the announcers are quick to jump on the bucks.

NorCal Buckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:28pm.

Check out the replay on Cam getting hit while running back to the runner. His leg is donezo.

Jason on 17 October 2009 - 1:28pm.

He is.

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:29pm.

Wasn't this the story before he went down?

Either rotate him with Browning or keep him off the field.

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:29pm.

He's walking off. Thank God.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:30pm.

Bradford hurt that shoulder again

texasbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:30pm.

Great tackle Kurt

jbeveridge on 17 October 2009 - 1:31pm.

cordle looks like a white browning playing tackle and do we run legit pass plays i think that is a problem

flipbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:32pm.

Great stop.

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:32pm.

Hoping we see Shugarts/Adams on this next drive. Cordle's gettin' rocked.

Jason on 17 October 2009 - 1:33pm.

Hats off to Purdue. They have a creative offensive gameplan so far.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:34pm.

Big 10 "analyst" Chris Martin

ALMA MATER: Northwestern University

THE BEST BIG TEN TRADITION IS …: facing the hostility of playing or watching a game in Iowa.

jbeveridge on 17 October 2009 - 1:34pm.

how is it that cordle is a senior and it looks like he should be a high schooler hell its a purdue pass rusher running right around him

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:34pm.

Think you'll ever say that about our O?

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:34pm.

and Adams is out there at LT. Nice.

bup bup bup on 17 October 2009 - 1:35pm.

welp that was two stiff arms in one play by one player

texasbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:35pm.

This offense makes my eyes bleed

buckinnc on 17 October 2009 - 1:36pm.

wtf was that

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:36pm.

COMMERCIAL BREAK!

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:36pm.

I think he shanked an arm punt.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:36pm.

too funny

jbeveridge on 17 October 2009 - 1:37pm.

pryor should have went somewhere that develops qb note tressel's history minus troy smith see supporting cast and b10 but for being a offensive coach it speaks my point YSU is where he belongs

Jason on 17 October 2009 - 1:37pm.

One can hope.

Jason on 17 October 2009 - 1:37pm.

Put down the crack pipe.

NorCal Buckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:38pm.

He should've ran it.....

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:38pm.

No, he should have put on 30lbs and played defensive end.

Dean on 17 October 2009 - 1:38pm.

???

texasbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:38pm.

Its like watching peewee football. Everyone seems to be running around with no idea what they were supposed to do.

buckinnc on 17 October 2009 - 1:39pm.

he threw it to RS in stride...small victories

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:40pm.

And then the QB runs, just like peewee football

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:40pm.

True, but he also left Small out to dry in an awkward coverage match-up.

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:40pm.

LOL.

Purdue won't let Purdue win.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:41pm.

LOL......I suppose they'll say there was a whistle

Tim on 17 October 2009 - 1:41pm.

Kurt Coleman! Wow

Grady Jacksons Belly on 17 October 2009 - 1:41pm.

Kurt Coleman is an All-American.

bup bup bup on 17 October 2009 - 1:41pm.

hahah this defense is so awesome

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:42pm.

That's bullshit

Tim on 17 October 2009 - 1:42pm.

Bullshit.

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:42pm.

Shades of Illinois '07...

flipbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:42pm.

That is criminal.

texasbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:43pm.

Why did Tress not challenge that? Forward progress not challengable?

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:43pm.

The Big 10 should be ashamed. The only way they can keep teams close to us is to have the ref's cheat in their favor.

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:43pm.

I think so.

VB Buckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:44pm.

WTF? I didn't hear a whistle stop that play!

VB Buckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:45pm.

Big 10 refs have always been a bit shady... Especially when dealing with the Buckeyes!

flipbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:45pm.

mmm charissa...

Olentangy on 17 October 2009 - 1:47pm.

These refs blow

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:47pm.

perhaps they are being hit hard

Brutus on 17 October 2009 - 1:47pm.

Dogshit

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:48pm.

No whistle, no way it is their ball. Period.

jbeveridge on 17 October 2009 - 1:48pm.

we need breaks against Purdue wow i am so sick of Tressel offense espically when i think we have the best Defense in the country. Anybody see where Tress got his QB coach from that explains why i am not a Tressel fan and our team,. will never beat a good sec or b12 team. when we hire coaches from divison II and III programs

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:49pm.

Back to the playpen, junior.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:50pm.

Don't let the title fool you. Tress is the QB coach.

babbski on 17 October 2009 - 1:50pm.

There's probably a conference policy to show a clip of her whenever the refs screw up a call. Distraction technique.

Chaoscrusader on 17 October 2009 - 1:51pm.

We are getting homered, Hines got blocked in the back on the last first down.

TP has look at the huge gaps in the Purdue def when they blitz

texasbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:51pm.

Human don't come much uglier than Curtis Painter

bup bup bup on 17 October 2009 - 1:52pm.

holy shit

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:52pm.

Damn it!

flipbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:52pm.

Still looks like a lesbian.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:53pm.

You are asking a bit much.

Brutus on 17 October 2009 - 1:53pm.

Our D is Hot Garbage

texasbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:54pm.

This has probably been discussed during another gameday thread, but what causes the "Your posting too fast" message and is there any way to fix it?

Anonymous Internet Person on 17 October 2009 - 1:54pm.

this is getting ridiculous. I'm watching on espn gamecast, and I'm getting sick of seeing these short pass completions by purdue. what's going on? is it the secondary?

Brutus on 17 October 2009 - 1:55pm.

Time of Posession is a joke

Jason on 17 October 2009 - 1:55pm.

It took the Boilers 12 plays to cross the 40 on this drive.

Meanwhile the Badgers are up 10-0 on the Hawkeyes.

Chaoscrusader on 17 October 2009 - 1:55pm.

we need more pressure

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:57pm.

Never let Ray Small touch the ball on punts again.

flipbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:57pm.

Oh Ray Small....

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:57pm.

His forward progress was stopped.

texasbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:57pm.

back to the doghouse

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 1:57pm.

That was actually funny.

Tim on 17 October 2009 - 1:58pm.

Damn it Ray Small does that at least 5 times a year. Ugh, I want to see our offense on the field.

VB Buckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:58pm.

I'm still pissed that this drive was over when we stripped it, and the refs decided to PLAY the game instead of OFFICIATE it!

NorCal Buckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:58pm.

WTF.....

We should've had another player watching a potential dropped fair catch. Damnit.

BuckNasty on 17 October 2009 - 1:58pm.

No halo violation on that one?

Chaoscrusader on 17 October 2009 - 1:59pm.

So was Pryor's

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 1:59pm.

that still a rule?

texasbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 1:59pm.

Pretty sure there is no more halo rule

Anonymous Internet Person on 17 October 2009 - 2:00pm.

there better not be a fake field goal attempt here....

BuckNasty on 17 October 2009 - 2:00pm.

Ah - knew someone would know. Thanks.

bup bup bup on 17 October 2009 - 2:00pm.

defense is bringing it, up until now purdue had been using our agressiveness against us, but we're relentless and it's getting to em

Olentangy on 17 October 2009 - 2:00pm.

Michigan ruined that rule when they decided they would just always hammer the punt reciever and take the penalty every time

buckinnc on 17 October 2009 - 2:01pm.

they teach fielding punts in class. We can't hold RS responsible for knowing how to do it

jbeveridge on 17 October 2009 - 2:02pm.

ray small career in a nut shell. how do the purdue's and Badgers dominate ball control agains us when its our calling card. its hard to watch our games. no way would a Saban coached team struggle against a Purdue team that lost by 3 tds to Toledo

Tim on 17 October 2009 - 2:02pm.

Hey we get the ball, maybe, yay.

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 2:02pm.

Purdue beat Toledo by 3 touchdowns, kiddo.

Jason on 17 October 2009 - 2:03pm.

Yeah, those hits on Elliott will add up.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 2:04pm.

I am developing a mancrush

flipbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 2:05pm.

+1

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 2:05pm.

That left foot in?

Brett on 17 October 2009 - 2:05pm.

As Saine goes off...whoopsie.

texasbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 2:06pm.

wideopen = missed

flipbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 2:06pm.

Epic grab. Debatable too.

bup bup bup on 17 October 2009 - 2:06pm.

new strategy: never throw it ever again

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 2:06pm.

getting old

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 2:07pm.

Again I say.......only 2 1/2 yrs remaining.

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 2:07pm.

An arm punt with no punt returner. Fancy that.

anon on 17 October 2009 - 2:07pm.

Ray, the NFL called. They want your dreams back.

Tim on 17 October 2009 - 2:08pm.

Sanzenbacher had the left foot in when he caught it. Not even worth reviewing, though, apparently, since it would be a positive play for the Buckeyes.

Brutus on 17 October 2009 - 2:08pm.

this team is terrible

Jason on 17 October 2009 - 2:08pm.

LOL

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 2:08pm.

this team is 5-1 and winning

Tim on 17 October 2009 - 2:09pm.

Purdue has looked like they've had only 6 on the line of scrimmage on half of the plays so far. Glad they called it.

bup bup bup on 17 October 2009 - 2:09pm.

holy balls brian rolle is fast

Brett on 17 October 2009 - 2:10pm.

Anyone else feel like the D needs a pick-six for us to win again? I'm having flashbacks to Wisky...

flipbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 2:11pm.

What a punt, lol.

anon on 17 October 2009 - 2:11pm.

TP, they left a message for you too. They said running backs don't need to work on the forward pass in college. Focus more on taking handoffs.

bup bup bup on 17 October 2009 - 2:11pm.

hell i can punt it 18 yards

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 2:11pm.

I think he was kicking away from Ray Ray

buckinnc on 17 October 2009 - 2:11pm.

kick the field goal now

anon on 17 October 2009 - 2:12pm.

Winning against Purdue. Barely. Who gives a shit?

jbeveridge on 17 October 2009 - 2:12pm.

sam we are winning against terrible teams don't be to proud this team is terrible and coaching is the biggest problem.Say what you will we have not beaten a good team in four years

Brutus on 17 October 2009 - 2:13pm.

Purdue is terrible, we are in a dogfight.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 2:13pm.

I wouldn't go that far. We are missing one key piece.

Now the O-Line coaching could use a little work, but it's the QB.

Chaoscrusader on 17 October 2009 - 2:14pm.

RB Counter is wide open

texasbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 2:14pm.

Even on plays that work this offense just doesn't look crisp. Positive plays look more like an accident.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 2:14pm.

Yep. Screwing us again

Chaoscrusader on 17 October 2009 - 2:14pm.

Homered AGAIn

DJ on 17 October 2009 - 2:14pm.

ugh...good run by Saine too

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 2:15pm.

Bad call. Watch the Purdue O tackles on every play.

Tim on 17 October 2009 - 2:15pm.

God damn it wtf Pryor.

flipbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 2:15pm.

SMFH.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 2:15pm.

Offensive explosions are nigh, they say.

DJ on 17 October 2009 - 2:15pm.

Is it time for Bauserman yet?

texasbuckeye on 17 October 2009 - 2:16pm.

Not trying to make some stupid joke, but any chance TP gets sent to the bench?

Olentangy on 17 October 2009 - 2:16pm.

It's Bauserman time...hell put Coleman in at QB

Sam on 17 October 2009 - 2:16pm.

What do you think Bauserman would have done without any protection? Might not have been a turnover, still would have been a massive sack.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 2:17pm.

Is it just me, or is everyone but Sam getting to the point where we expect that to happen so we don't get mad, just shake our heads.

NorCal Buckeye on 17 October 2009 - 2:17pm.

Can't pass, has the dropsies, sit him for a drive. Too bad Tressel likely owes him a ton from the deal he made with TP to land him. JT went all in and now he's betting that his hand will turn a better card. Damn JT, sit him for a drive.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 2:18pm.

And we would still have the ball. Big difference.

Uncle_Buck on 17 October 2009 - 2:18pm.

If they never ran that option read again I would be a happy man. we run the same damn play 60% of the time on offense. Were only helping the other team by making them stop about 15 different plays.

Powers on 17 October 2009 - 2:18pm.

this is so frustrating... especially since i have to watch it on espn gamecast... then again maybe i dont wanaa watch this garbage

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 2:18pm.

only 2 1/2 years remaining.

anon on 17 October 2009 - 2:18pm.

Purdue would respect the pass then. Would be a different look on defense. Nice try though, I like your glasses...

Jason on 17 October 2009 - 2:19pm.

Anyone here think they'd wish they had Joey Elliott instead of Terrelle Pryor at the half?

NorCal Buckeye on 17 October 2009 - 2:19pm.

He might've tucked the ball instead of putting it 7' in the air while going down.

anon on 17 October 2009 - 2:19pm.

They never ran the option read, Pryor cannot make a read. All designed plays one way or another.

Uncle_Buck on 17 October 2009 - 2:20pm.

I now wish we had Newsome or Boyd to throw in for some kind of spark.

TLB on 17 October 2009 - 2:20pm.

anything is better than the defensive end we have at QB
