Purdue 38, at Michigan 36:

Joey Elliott threw for a career-high 367 yards and two touchdowns and ran for another to help the Boilermakers win for the first time at the Big House since Bob Griese led them to victory in 1966.

Most of you guys were not even born yet when Griese and co. beat the Wolverines in Ann Arbor....

Beating Michigan was a big win for the Boilermaker program. Despite a 5 game losing streak this year the Boilermakers can become bowl eligible by winning their final two games.

Vs Michigan St. next week in West Lafayette and on November 21st at Indiana. Purdue lost to Oregon by 2, beat Ohio St. and now Michigan but somehow managed to lose to Northern Illinois.

I doubt if they can beat Michigan St. but who figured they would beat Ohio St. and Michigan? Indiana will be no cinch but Purdue has the players to win that game if they can somehow get by The Spartans.

All this talk about Charlie Weis getting the hook.... How long does Michigan give to Rodriguez before they pull the plug?

Next year is a pivotal year for RR. To be fair, he is changing to a new system and will take the full four years to change.

Really hard to believe it has been that long for Purdue.

Purdue easily could have beaten Oregon, Notre Dame and Northwestern this year and be 7-3.
