  [SPEAKER_00]: Jake Dunn's reaction to the Boydler Maker 43 to 27 lost at Illinois.
• 0:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: Welcome Jake.
• 0:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: Thanks for having me as always.
• 0:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: Before we get to the game, I do want to mention to the listeners that later today we will have part two of our high school football scoreboard show at Juicy on Saturday, but it was my birthday and my wife surprised me so I didn't get it up on Saturday, it will be out on Sunday, we talked a lot of Boone County and Grant County football, let us see I see.
• 0:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: Also we'll have our Colts reaction.
• 0:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: after they play the Raiders today, and we will be talking major league baseball tonight, right after the Mariners and Tigers game ends.
• 0:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: So let's go on on the central Indiana Sport Report.
• 0:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: As always, go subscribe.
• 0:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: All right.
• 0:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: First thing I want to say Jake is I think we got ourselves a bit of a team.
• 0:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: There are definitely some weaknesses.
• 1:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: Don't get me wrong.
• 1:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: But I think we got ourselves
• 1:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think the two ways you can tell most about how good a coach is just by watching the game is did the team come ready to play, did they have a game plan and do they make good in game adjustments?
• 1:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I'll tell you what, this is at least the third game in a row, Purdue came into a game just ready to go.
• 1:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: Um, and even when they got down to, I feel like they still showed, you know, a good amount of fight.
• 1:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, I can go to the agree with who they're, I think Ryan Brown's been.
• 1:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: You know, just about as good as you can ask for from them.
• 1:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I'm very out of this is a show that he's a guy that can compete at Purdue.
• 1:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: The game plan was just that offensive game plan to start the contest.
• 1:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: They just, they knew exactly what they wanted to do.
• 1:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: It looked like they knew exactly how Illinois was going to respond.
• 1:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: And they did whatever they wanted on that first drive.
• 2:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: You can do that for a driver too.
• 2:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: You have to have a good team to do it for the whole game.
• 2:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: This is still a lot of very good team.
• 2:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: A defense is pretty weak.
• 2:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: If they don't get pressure on the quarterback, that is not a good defense.
• 2:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think we've seen the same story just for the past three weeks, it's been looked, you know, okay, if not good, and the defense just looked terrible.
• 2:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: So, produce, now drop three straight, two and three overall, oh, and two in the big 10.
• 2:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: The last time, Purdue won,
• 2:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: uh, in a way road game, um, which is, is where we'll go to Minnesota next.
• 2:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: I last time they wanted to wait for your game, Jeff Brom was still the coach.
• 2:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: That was, uh, uh, uh, what three or four years ago, now.
• 2:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: So that's right.
• 2:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: Um, yeah, it's been, uh, been a while still, so got a lot in front of them, uh, still, I, I think have a good chance to win some more games here this month, but, um, yeah, I, I, I hope that, uh, fans keep the, the optimism.
• 3:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to have to
• 3:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: The tune of starting its ball state and selling Illinois.
• 3:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I think this team here is capable of winning some games.
• 3:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I just hope that they don't have flashback from last year and give up a little too early.
• 3:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: And this is to me, just watching game to game seems nothing like last year.
• 3:25
  [SPEAKER_00]: This team has been competitive with pretty good teams in USC and Illinois.
• 3:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: They've threatened to win those games.
• 3:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: But plenty to play, they look like a team that belongs on the field with those programs, and that was not the case last year.
• 3:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, exactly.
• 3:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: And take away the second quarter yesterday, they probably win that game.
• 3:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: That was just a dreadful quarter.
• 3:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: Twenty seven points scored in the second quarter alone.
• 3:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: That was just a absolute killer.
• 3:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: You can't really recover from that.
• 3:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I think that really started and Michael Jackson, the third had that
• 4:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: They did whatever they wanted that entire quarter in that fumble man.
• 4:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: And it looked, I did, I was when he fumbled or that's that way.
• 4:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: He was down and they went back and replayed it.
• 4:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: He was not down.
• 4:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: And then Illinois did what they did all day and took advantage.
• 4:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: The score on the next play immediately after that fumble.
• 4:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: Luke Altnire hit Hank B.
• 4:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: This team, you know, you can't expect it to beat yourself and also win, so Peru is not good enough to survive these self-inflicted wounds that have kind of inflicted on themselves here the past past few games play on Saturday, prove that.
• 4:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think the bottom line is that their offense is good enough to compete with
• 4:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: most of the big 10, their defense isn't good enough to compete with any other.
• 4:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: And last, again, I think there were maybe two failed drives by Illinois yesterday.
• 5:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: And both of those, it was when they were able to get to the quarterback.
• 5:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I know Tony Grimes, you know, one of the star secondary pieces for Purdue.
• 5:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: I know he was out, but I still know he really awful.
• 5:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know how early in the staff expected.
• 5:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: Tony Grimes to be out, but it just looked like the backups weren't really prepared for the games.
• 5:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I don't know what went wrong there.
• 5:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if it's communication or didn't understand the scheme well or what, but the second there it was awful and it was more than just missing Tony Grimes.
• 5:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: It was just as a hold of the defeat just wasn't very good as we've seen repeatedly this year.
• 5:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, if it gives the run to, they just got gasped.
• 5:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, no, I could have run all over if they wanted to and there wasn't much Illinois there was not much the boy their makers could do to stop it this is the third straight game that produce a loud 43 or more points and 500 plus yards.
• 6:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: You see is a pretty good offense.
• 6:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: Notre Dame is a good offense.
• 6:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: Illinois for the most parts pretty good offense.
• 6:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: average, 20 to half yards per completion.
• 6:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I mean, do the receivers are getting down field, you know, pretty easily that, you know, not getting a lot of pressure, or bruises not tackling very well.
• 6:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: So it's probably combination of both.
• 6:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: But...
• 6:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: uh... the gubernators minnesota's offences and very good and that might be a chance to uh... to show that maybe it's because it get and those are honestly three of the best offences in the country so now you get minnesota coming in their last couple of games have not been able to score themselves including against cow which isn't that could have a team uh... i think the offences been good enough let's uh... let's go ahead and talk about Antonio Harris
• 7:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: 41 yard touchdown run is got 69 yards on four carries for the day.
• 7:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, I thought he was really good.
• 7:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: That haven't mocked me did pretty well in the past blocking game.
• 7:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: I feel like it's early in the season a place where they weren't necessarily great at, but I feel like the more the season progresses, the better they get it at helping with the with the past block.
• 7:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: So the line as we know is it, you know,
• 7:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: but it's nice to have some money back to aren't afraid to step in there and and hold a block.
• 7:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: I thought the line was quite good yesterday.
• 7:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: I know they, I know Brown got some pressure, he got sacked a couple of times.
• 7:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: I thought the offensive line, there were times in the game, I felt like they were pretty much handling the defensive line from Illinois.
• 7:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: I know Illinois doesn't have the best defensive line, I think we talked on the preview.
• 7:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: they're like 14th and the in the big 10 for with like the yards for game or sack something like that camera the exact staff, but no, they're not they're not a great offensive line.
• 8:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: See, I but the or the I great defensive line.
• 8:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: So the offensive line, they probably had a little better day than the then the past couple of games, but pretty good didn't well do.
• 8:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I thought they had Illinois's defense figured out a lot of the games and
• 8:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think I need to point this out, Jake, they had a chance to really get back in the game in the third quarter until that pump fumble.
• 8:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: That game might have turned out a little different.
• 8:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: And to your point about the offensive line, obviously they were doing something right because pretty ran for 151 yards, which is the most since week two.
• 8:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: So they're obviously opening up some
• 8:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: Ryan Brown, I always kind of are talking about him a little bit, use 30 for 50, 302 yards, and two total touchdowns, no interceptions.
• 9:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: So that's that's something that the passes has kind of hurt him.
• 9:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's USC in particular.
• 9:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: So it's going to see no interception from him.
• 9:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: So Ryan for 22 yards in the score and looks had a couple of really key runs.
• 9:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's got a knack or termed in those kind of, you know, messed up plays and to touch
• 9:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: You know, trick play against USC that he somehow directed a child and then, you know, they're in the end zone and they can have a fumbled stamp.
• 9:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: He picked it up and scored a touchdown.
• 9:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's got a nap return those turn of those broken plays into touchdowns, which is, you know, something that you want from your, from your quarterback.
• 9:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: So he's continued to impress me.
• 9:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I think he's got you can build around.
• 9:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: It seems like every game we've talked about the receivers being good a day or, you know, for this game,
• 9:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: They had a few drop passes that I felt like they probably could have kind of cut pretty easily.
• 9:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I just kind of the first game I've been a little disappointed in the receiving court, but what five games into the season now and this is the first time that I've been disappointed with them.
• 10:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think I'll I'll take that you know, when you compare it to last year.
• 10:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: And even you say you're disappointed in them.
• 10:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: They're top three receivers had 240 yards combined or something.
• 10:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: You can see how good that they can be.
• 10:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's for sure and something I feel like we'd be remiss to to not point out is the correlation between Taylor Swift dropping an album and Purdue losing a football game.
• 10:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: I believe Purdue's now oh and 10 and the same weekend, Taylor Swift drops an album.
• 10:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I think we can thank Taylor Swift for the Purdue loss against
• 10:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: Taylor Swift, you need to retire.
• 10:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, no more albums.
• 10:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: Just you've made enough music.
• 10:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: Just tour on what you've got the rest of your life and you'll be fine.
• 10:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe a pretty good start when it's more football games, but this makes it 12 straight losses against power for opponents, stating back to last season.
• 11:07
  [SPEAKER_00]: So, let me tell you a big 10 losses and that's gonna come to an end next week.
• 11:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm telling you.
• 11:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, they're beating the golfers.
• 11:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think going to this game, I don't know if I'll just second myself up or what, but I really thought Purdue had a chance and again, if a couple of things go differently, Purdue's got a good chance to win, but I was really hoping that it could be doing no here.
• 11:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think that it'd be a great minimum booster into the rest of the month, but I think Minnesota is one week.
• 11:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: compete and then speak and pay it up so it's up a whole game.
• 11:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: By the way, according to ESPN analytics, Purdue has between 36 and 37% chance to win their next three games.
• 12:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: Wow.
• 12:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
• 12:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
• 12:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know how they're getting that.
• 12:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: I have not seen much from Northwestern that would make me think that they're
• 12:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: any better than Purdue.
• 12:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: I've not seen anything from Minnesota that tells me there any better than Purdue.
• 12:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: I've not seen anything from Rutgers that tells me there any better than Purdue.
• 12:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: We've seen now Purdue three weeks in a row against quality opponents.
• 12:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: And we've seen a lot of good things.
• 12:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think it's a little bit better than the 36 or 37% chance to win those games, but coming up to Minnesota.
• 12:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: I know we're not shooting for a bullet anymore.
• 12:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think we need to be USC or Illinois to even think about a bullet.
• 12:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: You've got to get a win when these ones against your kind of peer programs.
• 12:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's a good way of putting it.
• 12:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, program.
• 12:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: In order to win those games here coming up in October for you, we have a limit to turnovers, obviously.
• 13:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: We got to get some turnovers on defense.
• 13:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's something that.
• 13:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: Purdue hasn't still have to only have one turn over through five games, which obviously it's not.
• 13:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: Not a very good stat.
• 13:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: Get a limit to the explosive plays in this game.
• 13:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: There are nine passes for over 15 yards and four runs for over 10 yards.
• 13:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: So got a limit to those explosive plays.
• 13:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: Pino deez, Purdue had eight for 64 yards.
• 13:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: So early in the season, you know, prove is one of the least penalized teams in the country over the past three games.
• 13:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: Discipline there and then I've just got to get some pressure on the quarterback and something that we've been Be kind of saying all year Yeah, something that that produced kind of struggled with but if they don't they have no chance that yeah, that's the bottom line is If they don't get pressure it and look it made if your players aren't good enough you got to scheme up some pressure and the defense of backs are getting gashed anyway So bring in another guy into pressure isn't going to probably change that Yeah, they they're going to have to scheme it up if they can't
• 14:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: because that's again, with that defense of backfield and the way teams are able to run on them, that's really their only hope is to get to the quarterback.
• 14:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I think as they showed yesterday, they can sometime.
• 14:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: We're certainly not asking for perfection and we're just never going to come to fruition, but we're looking for progress and that's what fans are looking for.
• 14:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: The offense has shown a lot of progress throughout the season, but from the defense, might seem a little bit of progress in some areas, but it seems like every week we're talking about how the defense defense isn't good and how we need to plug some holes there.
• 14:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: Defensive line, I'm going to need a lot of investment there in the portal or in high school recruiting.
• 14:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: The same thing with the secondary cell.
• 14:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: I know those are kind of some of the more expensive areas for the team building and then I L Arab.
• 14:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: I have confidence that they've been doing their due diligence in.
• 14:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: players who may be hitting the portal and in high school ranks as well.
• 15:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I think they know that they need to be willing to maybe spend some money and some of those key areas.
• 15:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: We're saving our expectations for a perfection for the basketball season.
• 15:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: That leads me to let everybody know that Jake and I will be doing the Purdue report on Wednesday.
• 15:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: On the Purdue Report, we talk football and basketball and we'll be back on Friday to preview the Minnesota game.
• 15:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: And then we will react to it.
• 15:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: Thank you so much, Jake.
• 15:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: And thank you so much for listening.
