Transcript
- 0:04[SPEAKER_00]: You are listening to a special edition of the Purdue Report with Jake Dunn, his reaction to produce 52-38 lost in Los Angeles to UCLA on Saturday night.
- 0:17[SPEAKER_00]: And it's only on Central Indiana Sports Report.
- 0:21[SPEAKER_00]: Jake and I'll be back on Monday to react to the release of Purdue's Men's Basketball Big Gen Schedule.
- 0:28[SPEAKER_00]: Please join us.
- 0:36[SPEAKER_00]: Well, Jake, another week of a lot of good things to talk about coming off a Purdue game, but another week where the street continues.
- 0:49[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, who's quite the shootout there at the Rose Bowl.
- 0:54[SPEAKER_01]: You see Leigh, he ends up walking away with this one, 52 to 38.
- 0:58[SPEAKER_01]: So another sharp line by Vegas and the sports books, for it was basically a 14 point underdog and turned out to be exactly the score.
- 1:08[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, really.
- 1:10[SPEAKER_00]: They have the over under at the.
- 1:12[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, the over under was not to.
- 1:14[SPEAKER_01]: That was not close.
- 1:16[SPEAKER_01]: But that score 52 to 38 is a pretty unusual perus score.
- 1:21[SPEAKER_01]: If you were to tell me that peru put up the 38 points before this game, I would think peru had a pretty good chance to win.
- 1:28[SPEAKER_00]: The offense was good enough to win again.
- 1:30[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, it was.
- 1:31[SPEAKER_01]: These two teams combined for 1,133 combined yards and 90 total points.
- 1:40[SPEAKER_01]: 488 yards and 38 points came from Purdue and then UCLA put up 645 yards including 369 yards on the ground and obviously 52 points and that's just very frustrating but her fans.
- 1:57[SPEAKER_01]: I'm sure even more frustrating for Coach Odom.
- 2:01[SPEAKER_01]: Ryan Brown looked
- 2:08[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, but this, the offense played well enough to win this game, uh, but just the defense could not get a stop.
- 2:15[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, the offense played well enough to win the game despite the fact they were playing for behind the whole game because of the defense.
- 2:22[SPEAKER_00]: The thing that frustrated me most about the defense, Jake wasn't that they were bad because they made some plays all night.
- 2:28[SPEAKER_00]: They made some plays and they got UCLA and a lot of third and 10, third and 15, third and nine, third and seven.
- 2:37[SPEAKER_00]: and couldn't stop them, just could not stop them on third now.
- 2:41[SPEAKER_01]: And it also kind of seemed like Purdue couldn't put back to back positive things together.
- 2:47[SPEAKER_01]: Like if the offense went out and scored, the defense never could drop and get a stop or if the defense didn't get a stop.
- 2:52[SPEAKER_01]: The offense was strong to move the ball.
- 2:54[SPEAKER_01]: So it was just hard for for those things to compound throughout the game, but I do want to credit but produce a fight year.
- 3:02[SPEAKER_01]: You see a way.
- 3:06[SPEAKER_01]: touch-shounds on its first three possessions, they jumped out to a 21-to-7 lead, before pretty early you've been settled into the game.
- 3:13[SPEAKER_01]: The Bruins are moving a ball pretty quickly and very well done the field, and all three opening scoring drives to question three minutes and 30 seconds.
- 3:23[SPEAKER_01]: So they were there moving the ball quick.
- 3:27[SPEAKER_01]: and to your point Greg, you know, Purdue had to spend the rest of the game, you know, just trying to climb out of a hole.
- 3:32[SPEAKER_01]: We saw this kind of against Wake Forest, not to this extent, but Purdue erased a 10-point deficit against Wake Forest, came back from the 14-point deficit here, and actually took the lead in this game, and that's really encouraging in terms of the team for Zillions.
- 3:48[SPEAKER_01]: You just can't make a continual habit though of starting these games in a hole,
- 3:56[SPEAKER_01]: Um, and so I used to bigger issue is, um, you know, trying to stop creating that versy in the first place.
- 4:06[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 4:08[SPEAKER_00]: There was a point in the game, Jake, where I thought, oh, produce going to win this game.
- 4:13[SPEAKER_00]: They were down seven.
- 4:14[SPEAKER_00]: They had all the momentum.
- 4:16[SPEAKER_00]: They were coming back and
- 4:19[SPEAKER_00]: Nico, I am a lava, was hurting his hand, his throwing hand, and his throwing shoulder.
- 4:26[SPEAKER_00]: I thought he is not going to be able to finish this game.
- 4:29[SPEAKER_00]: The only time Purdue had stops were when his brother was in the game as the backup, and I follow.
- 4:37[SPEAKER_00]: They're going to win this game, and honestly, they kind of deserved a win one of these games, Jake.
- 4:43[SPEAKER_00]: They're playing too well.
- 4:45[SPEAKER_00]: I thought the defense again did some things well throughout the night at times and just no consistency could not put back to back plays together, could not get pressure enough on the quarterback.
- 4:57[SPEAKER_00]: And when they did, he would have find a way to get a first down on 3rd and 16.
- 5:02[SPEAKER_00]: And boy, they look like a team that's close to having some success, but it's getting a little frustrating.
- 5:10[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, it is.
- 5:11[SPEAKER_01]: The defense in particular, the run defense, Purdue just could not stop UCLA's running backs, way night at a rush for 170 yards and two touchdowns.
- 5:23[SPEAKER_01]: Some of their other running backs also contributed quite a bit to that.
- 5:27[SPEAKER_01]: 360 nine yards.
- 5:30[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they, uh, you see a lay ran for more than 140 yards in the fourth quarter alone while trying to close out the game.
- 5:37[SPEAKER_01]: And as we've mentioned, just can't happen, Purdue exhibited some pretty poor tackling and pursuing angles as well in that, you know, allowed kind of manageable play is a turn into, to hunt plays.
- 5:47[SPEAKER_01]: And, um, you see lights consistently got through the first level.
- 5:52[SPEAKER_01]: the past rush, same story last year, kind of struggled to put much pressure on the quarterback and to your point, even knocked him out in the game twice, and he returned and ultimately ended up throwing for 276 yards and three touchdowns.
- 6:07[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, it's a pretty bad performance from the Purdue defense here and yeah, I imagine very disappointing for the entire team and coaching staff.
- 6:19[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, almost no pressure on the quarterback all night.
- 6:21[SPEAKER_00]: He had all night.
- 6:22[SPEAKER_00]: I thought they were going to turn Morgan and Knight in the Heisman trophy candidates there for a little while.
- 6:29[SPEAKER_00]: It's hard to watch.
- 6:31[SPEAKER_01]: You're kind of comparing this to the weight game against weight produced defense hats or problems.
- 6:38[SPEAKER_01]: But they also showed like stretches of improvement and resilience.
- 6:43[SPEAKER_01]: But you're in the UCLA game, it just seemed like
- 6:49[SPEAKER_01]: Peru can stop to run, can isolate pressure to quarterback and the wake game I feel like Peru was able to get some pass rush and some pressure on a geolopez, pretty good tackle in this game, you have to generate any turnovers and it's just a bad match up there and at least for the wake-force game you could make that.
- 7:10[SPEAKER_01]: the question whether Purdue could close out that game, but this game Washington, you just had no confidence that the defense could go on and give a stop and you said to help that UCLA would make some mistakes and would somehow give Purdue the opportunity to win the game.
- 7:25[SPEAKER_01]: I think for me, the 20 to 24 lead was a pretty crucial turning point.
- 7:32[SPEAKER_01]: Purdue takes a lead, 20 to 24, UCLA comes down as a 75 yard drive
- 7:40[SPEAKER_01]: Purdue Fund Bulls on the first play of its next drive UCLA scores three plays later and then all of a sudden there's a 30 to 28 and that happened all at less than five minutes.
- 7:52[SPEAKER_01]: I think this team has, you know, least in this game showed some resilience and has learned some of their mistakes in the past.
- 7:58[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm hoping that this experience here against UCLA, you know, when they're playing a team like Illinois or Minnesota, Maryland was constant,
- 8:09[SPEAKER_01]: hopefully this experience can help get over the hump and actually win one of those games.
- 8:15[SPEAKER_00]: You know, it's hope so.
- 8:16[SPEAKER_00]: And we're about to talk about all the positives on the offense here in the second segment here.
- 8:22[SPEAKER_00]: Jake, but man, that was seem fumble was huge, wasn't it?
- 8:26[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, it was.
- 8:27[SPEAKER_01]: And overall, get a pretty good night.
- 8:29[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that fumble, Travis Terrell's fumble and then the Ryan Brown
- 8:37[SPEAKER_01]: kind of killed any moment of the Ryan Brian or Section and kind of killed that opportunity that to make it a once-core game, but those turnovers basically gave UCLA 14 extra points which was the margin of victories.
- 8:49[SPEAKER_01]: Purdue can't be turned the ball over like that, especially if they can't generate any turnovers on defense either.
- 8:55[SPEAKER_01]: That was a problem that we've seen in the past few years, really Purdue just hasn't been able to to generate many turnovers.
- 9:01[SPEAKER_01]: They had to fix six continues state but so far that's been the only turnover here this season.
- 9:07[SPEAKER_01]: Hopefully Kevin King, you get something for your health.
- 9:10[SPEAKER_01]: Hey, to save us, not look too much different than us first.
- 9:12[SPEAKER_01]: Stand up for do.
- 9:15[SPEAKER_00]: He will be right back here in just a second.
- 9:23[SPEAKER_00]: If you're watching this video on YouTube, there's an earlier version of this podcast that comes out at Spotify SoundCloud Apple or Amazon.
- 9:32[SPEAKER_00]: And if you're listening on podcast, there is a version with highlights in the background.
- 9:36[SPEAKER_00]: So please make sure you are subscribed to two different places.
- 9:44[SPEAKER_00]: Jake, the first two games I thought Ryan Brown was really good through a lot of good passes.
- 9:50[SPEAKER_00]: And I thought,
- 9:52[SPEAKER_00]: late Saturday night there at UCLA might have been his best performance of the year until the late interception in particular.
- 9:58[SPEAKER_00]: He threw some really nice passes.
- 10:01[SPEAKER_00]: I thought there were some nice play designs.
- 10:03[SPEAKER_00]: I thought his receivers performed for him and 425 yards passing by the Purdue offense.
- 10:12[SPEAKER_00]: They're going to win games if they do that.
- 10:20[SPEAKER_01]: I had to kind of run my eyes and thought maybe the, I was watching over replay of Drew Breeze in that 15 jersey.
- 10:25[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, Ryan Browns looks really good, 19 or 30, passing 370 yards and 3 touchdowns.
- 10:34[SPEAKER_01]: That's the third consecutive game of Ryan Brown setting a new career high in passing yards.
- 10:39[SPEAKER_01]: That's a great trend.
- 10:39[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, there's still a lot of games to be played.
- 10:44[SPEAKER_01]: At this pace, he is a contract to break the record from those surpassing yards in a single season for a purgiport back.
- 10:51[SPEAKER_01]: He was definitely very impressive this game, especially considering that period's running game was basically not existing.
- 10:59[SPEAKER_01]: At your point, it made big throws down the field.
- 11:03[SPEAKER_01]: Handle pressure very well.
- 11:05[SPEAKER_01]: There's times where I feel like last year, he definitely would have tried to scramble out of pocket.
- 11:09[SPEAKER_01]: This series take composed, stepped up in the pocket and made some really impressive throws.
- 11:14[SPEAKER_01]: I thought the such-and-down pass in George Buren.
- 11:17[SPEAKER_01]: That was like a Sunday throw.
- 11:19[SPEAKER_01]: That looked like a core back you'd see in the NFL making that throw.
- 11:23[SPEAKER_01]: And there are a few other ones that yeah, and I was like, wow, right, right, right, right.
- 11:27[SPEAKER_01]: I'm really having a great game and, you know,
- 11:30[SPEAKER_01]: We mentioned this first intersection Peru is already trying to just climb out a hole like you said.
- 11:34[SPEAKER_01]: So you kind of had to be aggressive.
- 11:37[SPEAKER_01]: And that's really the only mistake.
- 11:39[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, the whole game that kind of felt like the receiving core was really good, particularly David Townsend and Sadduceme.
- 11:46[SPEAKER_01]: Xavier Townsend in particular had six catches 462 yards and two touchdowns.
- 11:52[SPEAKER_01]: And he started scoring for Peru with the 75 yard touchdown.
- 12:00[SPEAKER_01]: passing play by Purdue since Deon Berks, who is on the cults now, I believe since his 84 yard touchdown against Fresno State in the 23 opener, Ryan Walters, very first game at Spruce at Coach.
- 12:17[SPEAKER_01]: Beautiful play design too, by the way.
- 12:19[SPEAKER_01]: This was, and so yeardy, Xavier Townsend already had 113 yards receiving and two touchdowns a half time.
- 12:28[SPEAKER_01]: which obviously it's impressive and a big turn from a really fast few years from the receiving room.
- 12:35[SPEAKER_01]: Asad was seen as well.
- 12:37[SPEAKER_01]: A great night eight catches, 140 nine yards.
- 12:40[SPEAKER_01]: And he can use a look like one of produce most dependable weapons together.
- 12:46[SPEAKER_01]: They combined for 14 catches, 311 yards and three touchdowns.
- 12:52[SPEAKER_01]: So that's a pretty big chunk of produce
- 12:58[SPEAKER_01]: And then, you know, we kind of talked about the running game there too in a non-factor, pretty only rushed for 63 yards and 28 attempts.
- 13:08[SPEAKER_01]: That's only 2.3 yards of carry from a user boy.
- 13:11[SPEAKER_01]: They never as much success tonight, 17 carries, 47 yards, 2.8 yards of carry.
- 13:19[SPEAKER_01]: But apparently Coach Odom said that he was dealing with some sort of like injury or limitation,
- 13:27[SPEAKER_01]: is banged up a little bit here this week.
- 13:30[SPEAKER_01]: So something must have been wrong, probably with these been produce whole offense for the first two games per year and this game only had two runs for more than ten yards.
- 13:40[SPEAKER_01]: So a tough game from the running back room here, but luckily Ryan Brown and the receiving core was able to pick up some slack there.
- 13:51[SPEAKER_00]: Part of that was that they were playing from behind the whole game part of that I think the only one rushing attempt in the whole first quarter because they scored so quickly on the passes.
- 14:04[SPEAKER_00]: And part of that was that the offensive line was a little overmaned by the UCLA defensive front.
- 14:12[SPEAKER_00]: Um, and I thought we saw some good things out of the running backs.
- 14:15[SPEAKER_00]: I thought that easier boy had some nice runs.
- 14:17[SPEAKER_00]: I thought Jared Gibson did some good things.
- 14:19[SPEAKER_00]: He looks like a real running back.
- 14:21[SPEAKER_00]: So I kind of like the running back room.
- 14:23[SPEAKER_00]: They just need some room to run.
- 14:25[SPEAKER_01]: I think Jared Gibson looked really good.
- 14:27[SPEAKER_01]: I wouldn't mind seeing him get getting there a little bit more.
- 14:31[SPEAKER_01]: In place of a Travis Terrell.
- 14:32[SPEAKER_01]: I know he's not that as fast as Terrell, but.
- 14:36[SPEAKER_01]: Jared Gibson, this kind of looks like a powerful running back and massive experience at the powerful levels, wealth and Texas.
- 14:43[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, that fake plant that I really thought the aggressiveness, the offensive side, the aggressiveness and the play calling was a lot better here.
- 14:53[SPEAKER_01]: It kind of seemed like everything we were saying about the Wake Forest game, about how they need to be aggressive.
- 14:58[SPEAKER_01]: It kind of seemed like they were listening that and they made some changes here in this game,
- 15:06[SPEAKER_01]: the plunder he hit Antonio Harris for a 47-yard game and that converted the fork down there.
- 15:14[SPEAKER_01]: He would have scored two if Antonio Harris didn't kind of stumble after getting the cash.
- 15:19[SPEAKER_01]: But you put put Purdue inside the UCLA 10-yard line and that's exactly the type of aggressiveness you want to see really a play that could have if Purdue could have got some stops.
- 15:30[SPEAKER_01]: I think this could have turned out to be a play that that
- 15:33[SPEAKER_01]: It could have always wanted the game and produced favor.
- 15:36[SPEAKER_01]: So Purdue, unfortunately, couldn't finish it.
- 15:40[SPEAKER_01]: What the touchdown hadn't so for a few to go.
- 15:43[SPEAKER_01]: But I still think it's a positive there.
- 15:45[SPEAKER_01]: And whatever Purdue does go out there and it helps kind of keep the receiving teams.
- 15:51[SPEAKER_01]: Honestly, they got a count for the fix and everything.
- 15:54[SPEAKER_01]: Even more now that they have some that I'll fill.
- 15:57[SPEAKER_01]: Yep, and that was really, really great to play Colin.
- 16:00[SPEAKER_01]: It was really happy to see that aggressiveness.
- 16:03[SPEAKER_00]: Well, Jake, we will have a preview of the Notre Dame game later this week.
- 16:11[SPEAKER_00]: Don't forget that Purdue did score 30 points on Notre Dame last year, so there is that.
- 16:18[SPEAKER_00]: The offense, if it continues to roll, they might be able to play with the art for a little while, but I think you and I are looking more at Illinois and Minnesota as the possible next win, right?
- 16:32[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.
- 16:33[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, if you see a lake and can put up 52 points on this defense, I'd hate to see how much a Notre Dame will put up.
- 16:41[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, the last time Notre Dame came to Rossi, and I was there in person.
- 16:46[SPEAKER_01]: I was on Purdue, lost 66 to 7.
- 16:49[SPEAKER_01]: And if they could put 66 points up then, I'd hate to know how many points this Notre Dame team could put up on this
- 17:03[SPEAKER_00]: we'll talk more about that later in the week and Jake reacted to produce men's basketball schedule.
- 17:10[SPEAKER_00]: I have because of the weekend and all the football I haven't had a chance to get that out that'll be out.
- 17:15[SPEAKER_00]: Early this week probably first thing Tuesday morning, Jake and I went through the Purdue men's basketball schedule.
- 17:21[SPEAKER_00]: So there's a lot of Purdue stuff here to look forward to Jake.
- 17:25[SPEAKER_00]: Final thoughts on this one.
- 17:28[SPEAKER_01]: If you were to tell me peru would score 38 in this game, I would have thought they would won, so I think it's huge for this team to see the offense have an up-it-in-show to score a lot.
- 17:39[SPEAKER_01]: I think this on the broadcast the last year peru average, like 14 points a game, but for like that.
- 17:44[SPEAKER_01]: So it's nice to
- 17:45[SPEAKER_01]: to see them be able to come out here and put up a lot of points against a UCLA defense set, typically is pre-solid, Ryan Brown looks to be continuing pretty much every week.
- 17:55[SPEAKER_01]: The receiving core looks a lot better, we got some potential in the running back room.
- 17:59[SPEAKER_01]: I just defensive has to be better.
- 18:02[SPEAKER_01]: Hopefully they can make some improvements there, Coach Odom said in the post game, he was asked basically, it's the defense, a scheme problem or a talent problem.
- 18:13[SPEAKER_01]: Coach Odom said that he, you know, believes they have enough talent, but the results aren't really reflecting that I don't know if Coach Odom would really say it's a talent problem if it was because he'd be thrown his players on the bus But yeah, or scheme problem if it was because he'd be thrown his coach on the bus
- 18:32[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's kind of, I mean, he's got to figure something out.
- 18:35[SPEAKER_01]: He's a defensive coach, just what he was hired for.
- 18:37[SPEAKER_01]: He's not acceptable that his defense, and the guy that he hired to run his defense is having up over 600 yards of offense.
- 18:46[SPEAKER_01]: So, someone's got to get fixed there.
- 18:49[SPEAKER_01]: And if it doesn't, we'll, we'll be seeing more offenses like Notre Dame and I, you know, maybe even like Penn State, you know, that they're gonna be putting up just as many yards
- 19:05[SPEAKER_00]: Thanks Jake, everybody don't forget to like, subscribe, and follow.
- 19:08[SPEAKER_00]: We appreciate you listening, Jake.
