Transcript
- 0:00[SPEAKER_01]: You are listening to a special edition of the Purdue Report with Jake Dunn, his preview of the Purdue Washington game on Saturday, only on the Central Indian Sports Report.
- 0:19[SPEAKER_02]: Welcome back, Boiler Maker fans, to a special edition of the Purdue Report.
- 0:25[SPEAKER_02]: with Jake Dunn, our preview of Purdue's game Saturday evening, seven o'clock at the University of Washington.
- 0:33[SPEAKER_02]: Jake has been a long time since the boy their makers got a win.
- 0:39[SPEAKER_02]: Doesn't look like it'll probably happen on Saturday.
- 0:41[SPEAKER_02]: The good news is it didn't seem like Washington was going to lose at home.
- 0:46[SPEAKER_02]: Last Saturday either and did against a Wisconsin team that's probably pretty similar to Purdue.
- 0:53[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that there's a good news, but Purdue heads to Seattle first first trip to Washington since 1989 and their first trip as big tin rivals.
- 1:05[SPEAKER_00]: So the two-nate bullet makers is a tier-point riding in eight game losing streak while Washington, they're sitting at 163, three and three in the conference, lost a stunner really, 13 to 10, it was Alice Thompson.
- 1:20[SPEAKER_00]: and that probably put a nail in the coffin to their playoff hopes that they had any hope for making a playoff's.
- 1:27[SPEAKER_00]: But early, the early line for Vegas has Washington favored by 60 and a half.
- 1:34[SPEAKER_02]: Let's see if it's probably about right.
- 1:36[SPEAKER_02]: And bad has this been, and it's been pretty bad.
- 1:39[SPEAKER_02]: It was a really bad stretch, almost a depressing stretch.
- 1:43[SPEAKER_02]: There with losses to Minnesota and Rutgers and Northwestern and a couple that they gave away there.
- 1:50[SPEAKER_02]: And it hasn't been fun getting beaten pretty soundly the last couple of weeks by Michigan in Ohio State, but you can't say you haven't seen improvement the last couple of games.
- 2:01[SPEAKER_00]: And I think it's some of these bigger games, if you will, I guess, you know, Notre Dame Ohio State Michigan Purdue is actually covered the spread pretty well.
- 2:15[SPEAKER_00]: Covered it until Ohio State with a touchdown in the last two minutes of the game, but Michigan, you know, they covered the spread.
- 2:22[SPEAKER_00]: It was a close game goal to hold game and a Notre Dame.
- 2:25[SPEAKER_00]: You know, they're hanging there for at least the first half and they are covering the spread there.
- 2:30[SPEAKER_00]: So maybe we'll see, see if Purdue can continue that stretch when there's kind of some what large spread.
- 2:38[SPEAKER_00]: And we'll see if Purdue can keep it within an arm on length.
- 2:44[SPEAKER_02]: In order to do that, really, I think they're probably going to have to outscore Washington.
- 2:50[SPEAKER_02]: Washington scores a lot of points.
- 2:51[SPEAKER_02]: They give up a lot of points.
- 2:53[SPEAKER_02]: They have one of the top ranked offences in the Big 10 in the Big 10.
- 2:59[SPEAKER_02]: And the good news probably for Purdue is that Washington is last in the Big 10 and past rushed, so it should be able to keep the quarterback upright.
- 3:09[SPEAKER_00]: The Huskies have a pretty good quarterback.
- 3:11[SPEAKER_00]: Descend Williams is a true dual threat quarterback.
- 3:15[SPEAKER_00]: I knew it's the big tin with big tin core backs.
- 3:19[SPEAKER_00]: It is with 409 rushing yards and it has got 12 runs of 20 or more yards.
- 3:25[SPEAKER_00]: So I asked the most of the nation.
- 3:26[SPEAKER_00]: So.
- 3:27[SPEAKER_00]: It's like pretty much as kind of historically struggled with keeping mobile quarterbacks in the pocket and not letting them beat them with their legs So we'll see if this very little defense cannot keep decimal aims contained and Wisconsin did last week, he really did not have a very good game
- 3:48[SPEAKER_02]: last week he did have 60 yards on the ground, but it was just a 134 yards passing.
- 3:54[SPEAKER_02]: Other than the game at Michigan is really taking care of the ball, just two interceptions thrown all year besides the three through at Michigan.
- 4:02[SPEAKER_02]: He's been really good, but it's not like he's been unbeatable when you get to it.
- 4:09[SPEAKER_00]: actually tends running back, Jonah Coleman.
- 4:11[SPEAKER_00]: He was a priest.
- 4:12[SPEAKER_00]: He's an all-american.
- 4:12[SPEAKER_00]: Actually, he's he's questionable after he suffered an injury at Wisconsin.
- 4:19[SPEAKER_00]: So if he doesn't play obviously, that's a little help Purdue.
- 4:23[SPEAKER_00]: So Nick Washington, even if Coleman doesn't play still going to be able to handle Purdue fairly easily.
- 4:29[SPEAKER_02]: But big difference.
- 4:31[SPEAKER_02]: I'll tell you that.
- 4:31[SPEAKER_02]: He leads to the Big Ten and touchdown runs with 13.
- 4:35[SPEAKER_02]: You could make an argument that he's the best
- 4:39[SPEAKER_02]: big 10 like we said there's no doubt that Washington is going to score points.
- 4:42[SPEAKER_02]: That's the week they actually use the final score last week.
- 4:45[SPEAKER_02]: 13 to 10.
- 4:46[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 4:47[SPEAKER_02]: So it is possible to slow them down as maybe Wisconsin put some things on film that Purdue could replicate.
- 4:53[SPEAKER_00]: So, and it was, uh, Washington does have a pretty talented offensive line, but they are heard as well.
- 5:01[SPEAKER_00]: I've got multiple starters banged up.
- 5:03[SPEAKER_00]: And it's one of the youngest units that produce faceless season.
- 5:09[SPEAKER_00]: So definitely definitely have some some question marks there on the offensive side for Washington.
- 5:15[SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully produce defense standard and breaks a little line and not what doesn't go into the game speed and only ground.
- 5:26[SPEAKER_02]: Of course, Jake's second year for Washington, along with Oregon, UCLA, and USC, and the Big Ten.
- 5:33[SPEAKER_02]: And it started off really well.
- 5:34[SPEAKER_02]: They went started three and out, including a big win over their rivals, Washington State.
- 5:39[SPEAKER_02]: Then a 24 to six loss to Ohio State, which a lot of people probably consider to be a pretty good loss.
- 5:47[SPEAKER_02]: It wins over Maryland and Rup.
- 5:49[SPEAKER_02]: They had that bad loss at Michigan.
- 5:51[SPEAKER_02]: They beat Illinois, good win at home.
- 5:55[SPEAKER_02]: a couple of weeks ago and then it just kind of all fell apart last week with a 13 to 10 loss to a really bad Wisconsin team.
- 6:05[SPEAKER_00]: It is pretty surprising because this has to be defensive pretty good.
- 6:09[SPEAKER_00]: It is led by former Purdue head coach Ryan Walters, but they're not super deep, but they're pretty technically sound and they are opportunistic.
- 6:21[SPEAKER_00]: especially in comforts.
- 6:23[SPEAKER_00]: I've got some good players in the edge.
- 6:25[SPEAKER_00]: I've got some a young linebacker core and I've got a secondary that's, you know, long and physical.
- 6:33[SPEAKER_00]: Both starting corners are six four.
- 6:36[SPEAKER_00]: So that's pretty big for, for a corner.
- 6:38[SPEAKER_00]: So it's going to be tough for guys like Michael Jackson, I try to double to, you know, be able to to kind of get some space when the corners are that big.
- 6:51[SPEAKER_02]: They're giving up a lot of points this year, but they do make plans.
- 6:57[SPEAKER_02]: Jake is this week.
- 6:58[SPEAKER_02]: Purdue finally ends the long losing streak.
- 7:02[SPEAKER_02]: The long big 10 losing streak and the long road losing streak.
- 7:09[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think so, unfortunately.
- 7:13[SPEAKER_00]: It would be nice, especially since there are some familiar faces kind of everywhere between these two programs.
- 7:19[SPEAKER_00]: We talked about Ryan Olters, who is a former head coach, who went 5 of 19 overall, 3 and 5 in the big 10, and his two years here, Brian Oden, very early on his brother, the youngest brother.
- 7:33[SPEAKER_00]: He used to watch things inside blindbackers' coach.
- 7:38[SPEAKER_00]: Brad Odham, the oldest Odham brother works and produces recruiting department.
- 7:45[SPEAKER_00]: So I should be an Odham family reunion there in Seattle.
- 7:48[SPEAKER_00]: Produce special teams coach last year, Chris Petrelli, joined Ryan Wolters over there in Washington and even on the field, Jack McAllister,
- 8:05[SPEAKER_00]: he began his career at Washington and played in that national title game before transferring.
- 8:11[SPEAKER_00]: So a lot of familiarity between these teams, but yeah, I don't think this is the one that that Purdue ends up wanting.
- 8:21[SPEAKER_00]: So Washington all time, at least this series seven, two and one.
- 8:27[SPEAKER_02]: I remember one of them.
- 8:30[SPEAKER_02]: The 2000 Rose Bowl, of course.
- 8:34[SPEAKER_00]: It was only when ever in Seattle, came in 1961, pretty 113 to six.
- 8:41[SPEAKER_00]: And the Huskies of all four meetings there, since then.
- 8:47[SPEAKER_02]: Would it just go for us?
- 8:50[SPEAKER_00]: If Purdue won't say in chance of an upset here, they've got to play a clean game.
- 8:56[SPEAKER_00]: Can't have any turnovers have to convert in the red zone as defense is watching as defense is really good in the red zone.
- 9:04[SPEAKER_00]: Really need to control the tempo.
- 9:06[SPEAKER_00]: With the run game, going to be hard with Dev and Lock to be out.
- 9:10[SPEAKER_00]: It's also some flashes from Intemy Harrison and Malachi Thomas, Glaskan.
- 9:18[SPEAKER_00]: and just got to capitalize on Washington's turnovers in entries too.
- 9:24[SPEAKER_00]: I definitely make them earn every yard and try and keep decimal games in the pocket.
- 9:29[SPEAKER_00]: It's pretty doesn't do that and there's not a really a shot to steal one here.
- 9:35[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm going to go Washington 35 Purdue 10.
- 9:40[SPEAKER_02]: I think you're just about on the money.
- 9:47[SPEAKER_02]: I had Washington 35 produced 16.
- 9:52[SPEAKER_02]: So they're really close on our predictions once again.
- 9:54[SPEAKER_02]: Hopefully we're wrong.
- 9:56[SPEAKER_02]: We were pretty wrong last couple of weeks when we predicted blowouts.
- 10:00[SPEAKER_02]: We're doing a kind of get blown up by Ohio State, but it escorted and looked too bad in the end.
- 10:06[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe they'll prove it's wrong again.
- 10:08[SPEAKER_00]: we said can all a year how a win and produce book would be covering these these spreads.
- 10:15[SPEAKER_00]: So, uh, for the most part, they've done a good job of doing that, but there's been some games where it's kind of gone a little behind.
- 10:23[SPEAKER_00]: So, good, uh, hopefully be a good game that pretty we can, you know, we speak competitive in and look, uh, you know what confident and look like they're, they're progressives, you know, sticking, uh, week a week.
- 10:35[SPEAKER_02]: Sure would be nice, you get a win here.
- 10:37[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, it would, I think, catch a lot of people by surprise.
- 10:44[SPEAKER_02]: Jake, thank you so much for your time.
- 10:45[SPEAKER_02]: Always appreciate it.
- 10:47[SPEAKER_02]: We'll look for that board and make a win on Saturday night.
- 10:51[SPEAKER_02]: Look forward to hearing from you on that.
- 10:53[SPEAKER_02]: Of course, go back and listen to Jake's recap.
- 10:57[SPEAKER_02]: Reaction to produce big win over Alabama.
- 11:00[SPEAKER_02]: That was released.
