This is crazy. You don't need a running QB to win a National Championship. Alabama has won a million of them and only one was with a QB that could run.Part of the problem is that Haskins cant run.
Martell needs snaps.
We'll see how Haskins' career plays out, but this could be a really good debate.Troy Smith better
I mean, all he has to do is make a read in that situation. If he can't do that yet, then fine...just let Haskins air it out and see what happens I guess.Plot twist, Martell isn’t that good right now either.
It’s not a well coached team. A paper tiger that has dramatically underachieved.
@Lee Congrats, dude. Your team kicked the SHIT out of us.

One things for sure: The 2005 & 2006 OSU teams were both WAY fucking better than what we've been trotting out there this year (and last). I mean...when you really drill it down, going through each position group...it's actually kind of shocking just how much better those teams were than the OSU teams the last couple years. It's not even close.
Not winning a National Championship with those 2005 or 2006 teams was definitely a bit of a bummer. Those teams were fucking good.
Trying to figure out wtf Purdue did right. I uh....legit had this down as the reverse score. I was sort of groaning, worried I'd see a slaughter on national television tonight.
Welp.
I'm dumbfounded.
Their secondary looked like complete trash the first 3 games, but they played like their ass was on fire tonight.
Also uh....Rondale Moore is a freak. I have no idea how the fuck Purdue landed him. That last run is among the best plays I've seen in Purdue history. Up there with the Brees-Morales play against OSU and Orton-Stubblefield against Notre Dame in 04,.
And yes. As a Purdue fan that means a lot because OSU is KNOWN for producing secondary players out the ass in the pros.
Thanks
I got kind of a man crush on Rondale Moore and now you guys get to see why. He might be the most dynamic player Purdue has ever had. Either him or Rod Woodson. He is a true Freshman and such an allusive talent. He came in from game one and knocked it out the park for us.
I've seen a great QB (Brees) a good QB (Orton) and some great de/olb prospects (Avril, Phillips,)
He's something else man. I've never seen a guy play like he has in a Purdue uniform.
I'd have to ask my dad...And that's not an insult towards the players I've seen, but that broken tackle was unreal to me.
And Woodson well...I sense some similarities, but that IU game in 86 is something my dad will tell me as the best game he's ever seen an individual player
