Purdue Football (and other notes)

I had the opportunity of hearing a recent interview with Purdue linebacker, Stanford Keglar. Like much of the Purdue football family, Stanford is confident that our Boilers defense will be much stronger than last year (Please note, Purdue was 114th in the nation in total defense in '06). I honestly think they'd have to dress the cheerleaders to be worse...but I digress.

During the interview, the senior LB told the reporter that Purdue could be a top-5 defense...in the country! OK, OK, I'm a Purdue guy, I'm an optimist, but that's crazy talk...Even from a guy with an obvious bias. For you IU guys, Keglar's prediction would be an improvement of 109 teams in total defense. Hell, if they'd get into the top 50 in total defense, I would have to believe they'll be ranked at the end of the season with the offensive firepower that's in the arsenal...but I guess that's why they play the game.

He Must Work Out

In the recent ESPN Gameday spot, Fowler, Herbstreit & Howard are working out while Corso is kicking it old school in the gym. I'm not the most fit guy, but I do know that Fowler must take his lifting verrrrrry seriously. If you look at the video, you'll see Gameday's lead anchor putting up over 500 lbs...On the bench! Well, I guess you have to be a gym rat to snag Bodyshaping's Jennifer Dempster (below).

Wow, Fowler is ripped! Oh wait, did I just say that out loud? Better go crush a beer can against my head. As far as Stanford, are you sure he didn't mean top five in the state? Maybe Tippecanoe County? Of course I think Toledo's only going to score 17 points, so what do I know?

I would be happy with top-5 in the Big Ten...I'd be thrilled with it actually.

Let's see-
-tO$U is always nails
-UM is consistently great
-Penn State will be very good
-Wisconsin's very solid
-Iowa's D is always better than Purdue's...

Well, out of the top-5 in the conference. How about staying out of the 11th spot?

Yeah, top 5 in the Big 11 is possible. Throw in a top 2 offense and things good be good this year. Heck, even Hutchens over at the IU Star has Purdue going to the Outback Bowl.

I'll gage this year's success on a couple of things-

-Can Purdue beat quality opponents?
-Can they beat anybody they're not favored to beat?
-To which bowl are they invited?
-Do they win that bowl?
