Well, they have in the past to SEC games and to Notre
Dame, such as last week's game. Still, it'd be great
if they made it to Evanston. I think the only time
they were there was 1995 for Iowa and they got forced
inside by the snow and cold.

I think we'll both be in the 20-25 range. No respect
for us until we beat a "big name" like Michigan.

I doubt it. Michigan may have 3 losses, but they're a
dangerous team and have been coming on lately. I think
they'll be favored.

Exactly -- it'd be great to see Gameday there or NU
favored, but regardless it'll be a huge game. Since
the 2000 Michigan game came after the Purdue loss (and
hence a slight loss of momentum), I'd say this is
shaping up to be the biggest since the 1995 Penn State
contest in ole' Dyche Stadium in terms of trying to
win national respect against a traditional power.

WEAR PURPLE!!!
MAKE NOISE!!!
