Disappointing.

Some good news. The Wildcats were able to pull off a win over the Boilermakers in a 34-29 victory. The fact that I am saying "pull off" is disappointing to me. I haven't been able to watch any of the games this season because I don't get ESPN - but how is it that NU can be leading by more than two touchdowns in the 1st quarter and still be fighting for its life in each game? Were it not for a lucky run by T. Sutton, Purdue would have won.

NU has one of the nation's top offenses, but clearly a sucky defense. Now I believe it when they say offense wins games but defense wins championships. Given that NU is up against three really tough defenses with top notch offenses in its next four games, we're probably not looking at a bowl bid.
