MINNESOTA 27, PURDUE 20: Reaction with Jake Dunn (2.56.3) · The Central Indiana Sports Report

• 0:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: Welcome back to the Central Indiana Sports Report, Boathermaker fans and, man, Jake, that's one they just gave away.
• 0:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, pretty disappointing ending to the game there, and me for three quarters, pretty looks like, you know, far and away to the better team.
• 0:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, outgame Minnesota, 444 yards, 262 yards, you know, the down mid-lime scrimmage, and held Minnesota just a 30 rushing yards.
• 0:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: But a pretty common theme we're seeing this season is that turnovers and penalties flipped a wonderful game into another, you know, gut punching loss.
• 0:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm your host, Greg Mingell.
• 0:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm joined by my co-host Jake Dunn.
• 0:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: I guarantee this win and like you mentioned the yardage, the way the game went, there was no doubt I was right Jake.
• 1:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: Pretty much way better than Minnesota.
• 1:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: He had to head, they ran on him whenever they want, and Purdue didn't allow any rushing yards at all.
• 1:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: And man, that pass was horrible.
• 1:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh my gosh.
• 1:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: Jake.
• 1:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: If you would've told me to stand today, just right off there a little bit of guilt about how big of a gapter was in terms of yardage and how little rushing yards been a soda one.
• 1:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: Or Minnesota rush four, I would've thought,
• 1:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: What was the turnover battle for to one, including that that picked six right after Minnesota ties a game?
• 1:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I was just a back breaker.
• 1:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: And it wasn't just that.
• 1:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: There were two twice they got out of drives with third down stops that were erased because of penalty.
• 1:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: The game's completely different if either one of those touchdown drives,
• 1:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: our punts yet instead of cuts down drives.
• 2:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: Minnesota couldn't even move the ball on a Purdue defense.
• 2:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: It isn't very good.
• 2:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: Towards the in the second half, they started throwing the ball a little better.
• 2:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: They had some luck.
• 2:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: But it was the good news Jake.
• 2:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: Let's go to the good news.
• 2:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: They now know they can play with the with the people in their peer group.
• 2:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely.
• 2:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: as we talked about before this is one that you really wanted to win especially after losing to Illinois to set yourself up for not only the rest of the season but next year and I think that that improvement will be a little less tangible if you know for you obviously hope it's
• 2:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: The only three went that's going to be a blood harder to pitch to recruit.
• 2:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: So we're doing your own guys that should continue to choose Purdue, but I think we got a little trying to be a little cute with the mock-a-be trick play pass into the incident.
• 3:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think it was open a little bit, but mock-a-be is kind of lofted up there and I didn't really see a need to pull out a trick play there.
• 3:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: It was driving the ball pretty fairly easily.
• 3:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: So I would like to see.
• 3:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: a little more consistency with what was working.
• 3:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: I like to play.
• 3:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: It just wasn't executed well.
• 3:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: And he should have probably just eaten at that point.
• 3:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: But I like the idea of, hey, we're dominating, we're dominating.
• 3:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're on their heels.
• 3:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: Let's throw something at him.
• 3:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: They have no ideas coming.
• 3:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: But sometimes it doesn't work.
• 3:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: And he just got to eat it.
• 3:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: In terms of each thrown it away, we saw Tyler Warren and the Colbscame a couple.
• 3:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think we'll want her to games to go where.
• 3:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: they ran something kind of similar and it with a read wasn't open to you just kind of threw it at a bounce and that was a pretty smart play by Tyler Warren.
• 3:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, obviously I don't know if there was a receiver in the area but it's smart just kind of throw that one out of the bounce and it was in the yard in your as we saw thrown in her section but speaking of the red zone Purdue was 205 for touchdowns and the in the in the red zone I believe Minnesota was
• 4:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: can't be having that sort of inefficiency in the red zone when you can't stop your opponent in the red zone.
• 4:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: Purdue is now minus nine in the turnover margin on the year, which is the worst in the big 10.
• 4:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm already toward the bottom of the league in talent.
• 4:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: You can't be doing that.
• 4:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: It was clear they were better than Minnesota.
• 4:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: If you watch that game, you know, I was getting taxed.
• 4:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: Hey, this Purdue team's not bad.
• 4:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: Hey, you know, those kinds of things,
• 4:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: And this is a game you got to win, and you got to win it.
• 4:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's too bad.
• 4:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: But like we said, there is good news coming out of it.
• 4:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: We see the talents there.
• 4:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: We see that they're probably at least as good if not better than Northwestern and Rutgers.
• 5:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: So we have hope for the next couple of weeks.
• 5:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: I like the Malachi Singleton piece that they've kind of added this.
• 5:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: You want to say Ryan Brown had a bad day at a bad passing day for sure.
• 5:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: Man, he was good running the ball.
• 5:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I can clearly agree on the Malachi Singleton piece.
• 5:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think also I think they could have.
• 5:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: kept going with it.
• 5:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, Minnesota little could not stop it.
• 5:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: So I would like to see him kind of keep going for you going until they they prove they can stop it.
• 5:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, I like to have a package and a plan.
• 5:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: And they were going to do that a plan with him no matter what it worked, this is a program that probably needs wrinkles.
• 5:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: And that's a wrinkle that they could throw in and make teams prepare for a little more because you can run the ball too.
• 5:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's a nice extra piece to the running game.
• 5:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: and Coach Odom in the post game mentioned that the teams have proved a lot of areas, but how that doesn't really matter.
• 5:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: You win or you lose and they lost.
• 6:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: So I think he realizes that they've gotten better, but he also realizes the importance of Wenzhen losses and how this one was a very vulnerable game.
• 6:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: So to your point there about silver lining silites,
• 6:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: We talked about the defense allowed just 262 total yards, which is the lowest total since the Southern Illinois game and by far, obviously the best big 10 showing so far.
• 6:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: Got the first interception of the season, 12 past breakups, six tackles for losses, two sacks.
• 6:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: So it was a pretty night and day improvement from the last few games that we've seen.
• 6:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: averaging 48.7 yards, a pint, that's a pretty pretty good average if he asked me.
• 6:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: Spencer Porraff, he was two for three, had that 48 yarder that he missed.
• 6:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: He had plenty of leg, he just kind of pulled it a little bit.
• 7:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: But let us silver lines there.
• 7:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: Don't know what happened to this defense.
• 7:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: Don't know, you know, if they got to get a stern talking to you after past couple of weeks or what, but yeah, they looked ready to go and honestly
• 7:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: And they were a little healthier and sometimes that can that can make a big different.
• 7:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: You just plug back one player into a lineup and it can it can make a lot of difference.
• 7:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: But you're right.
• 7:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: They were very improved from the week before man.
• 7:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: We should be talking about a win right now.
• 7:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: You go back to the silver linings piece mockaby finish with 98 yards on 21 carries and it's now fourth all time on the produced rushing list.
• 7:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: They carried the ball well, and it wasn't just mockably the quarterback season hide 253 rushing yards against.
• 7:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: We talked about in the preview how Minnesota had a supposedly had a really good rush defense, ninth or tenth in the nation.
• 7:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: But Purdue kind of ran all over.
• 7:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm so don't know what change there if the scheme that just worked really well, or if it was just a bad matchup for Minnesota or what, but mockery against Minnesota just seems to be a different way to seem like the always has really good games against.
• 8:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: against them, and yeah, you're quite should be talking about a one here.
• 8:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: All right, Jake, the Boothermakers are now two and four.
• 8:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: Started the season with Winds over Ball State and Southern Illinois.
• 8:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: Four losses in a row.
• 8:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, and three in the big tin.
• 8:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: The record here is a little misleading.
• 8:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think produce a little bit better than their record, but this was the produce most complete performance sense that.
• 8:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: Southern Illinois game in week two.
• 8:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, it might have set turnovers, but the defense, obviously, as we talked about rebounded pretty well, produced, learning to play in the big 10 right way, did a good job controlling the clock, winning a lens for image.
• 8:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: But just still missing that composure and discipline to close out the game.
• 8:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: Again, we're building those blocks for the future and really just need to win these next couple of games to really kind of finish.
• 9:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: finish out October, at least on a high note, but Purdue won the time possession game, you know, by five minutes, five plus minutes, the penalties and turnovers, nine penalties for 71 yards for Purdue, four penalties for 35 yards for Minnesota, and we talked about the four to one turnover margins, those penalties.
• 9:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: Those penalties all seem to come right at the wrong moment.
• 9:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't, if people didn't watch the game, if you guys, anybody didn't watch the game and you see this final score, you don't understand what the people who watch the game witnessed.
• 9:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: It was Purdue winning, Purdue winning, Purdue winning, and then just a bad play.
• 9:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: And then Purdue winning, Purdue winning, Purdue winning, and a bad play that would cost them.
• 9:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: And it just was, they won every play at the line of scrimmage, and they lost the game.
• 9:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: Anyway, next week, we're gonna be talking about a win.
• 10:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: They go to Northwestern three o'clock on the big tin network.
• 10:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: We'll be talking about more about that game, Jake, on Wednesday and on Friday, when we do our Purdue report and our preview, but Northwestern next week, then Rutgers at home, come out with that with what you play, I think is a Purdue fan now, you can hope for two wins.
• 10:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: Before this week, I thought that maybe Purdue might be favored against Northwestern, but not anymore.
• 10:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, with Northwestern upsetting Penn State, like yeah, I think Northwestern might be favored, but still a game that Purdue ideally should win.
• 10:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: Again, it'll be at Northwestern, so Purdue still hasn't won a road big 10 games since October of 2022, so coming up on three years without a road big 10 win.
• 10:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: and just fly out, you know, regular big tin games since November of 2023.
• 10:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: So there's enough here to believe talent effort and adjustments, but just time to turn those, those, that not progress in the results.
• 11:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: ESPN analytics has a 30.8% chance to win, but the betting line says Northwestern by two and a half, which isn't even the home advantage.
• 11:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: I feel like it's pretty common theme.
• 11:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: I feel like the percentage that ESPN gives is they didn't start right like Purdue side.
• 11:25
  [SPEAKER_00]: I would say Purdue's chance a little bit higher than that, but I'd say it's a pretty fair line for betting line two and a half.
• 11:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: So it makes me believe Vegas thinks Purdue is one of this game.
• 11:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, for sure.
• 11:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: If you watch that game at all yesterday, you see a decent boiler maker team trying to get out.
• 11:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, Purdue beat Purdue usually we're saying the offense to serve better, but at this game I think the defense really deserved better, you know, that's the way that Purdue's produced biggest opponent remains itself until the the turnovers and penalties are fixed, you know, we're going to keep losing these games.
• 12:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: So we got to get, got to get those and check.
• 12:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: We're going to talk more about it on Wednesday, Jake, but I'm just going into this week assuming Purdue's going to win this game.
• 12:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: it's kind of the way I feel is that this is the week where it all starts to turn around of course I said that last week too yeah yeah a broken clock is right twice a day so one of these days is going to be true yeah we'll keep trying and hey guess what basketball season is right around the corner here and here and 12 days will be you know we'll be talking about the Kentucky exhibition game so
• 12:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I heard in IU Oregon broadcast that, you know, they made a joke about how usually around this time of year, I used getting ready for, they're all putting on their basketball jerseys.
• 12:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I thought that was a 20 joke, and it kind of applies to Purdue now.
• 13:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: A lot of Purdue fans are, you know, gearing up for basketball season, when the four of us, it was IU, they didn't have much to look forward to at football.
• 13:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: So they're all getting ready for for basketball season, but now it's kind of Purdue.
• 13:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: Jake and I will be back again on Wednesday to talk some Purdue football and basketball on the Purdue report.
• 13:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: Then Friday we'll be back to preview that Purdue Northwestern game that I'm guaranteeing right now.
• 13:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: The boilers makers are winning.
• 13:35
