[NU Sports] Purdue

This game, with the late comeback, has now become the fulcrum for the season.? If we continue the momentum in Second Half, and pull out a win, the team will again believe in itself (which did not seem the case about 15 minutes in), and anything is possible.? Lose it, and we are looking at a long season.? The 'Cats are finally playing with purpose and passion, but boy, did it take forever to get there.

I am concerned about our wideouts.? I don't see the capability to make any big plays down the field.? We seem to only be able to complete 10-20 yards tops.? Who is out with injuries??? I am encouraged about the progress of Arby Fields in this game, after the horrible turnover on first play from scrimmage, but he is not the right guy to give the ball to on the goal line.? As I said to Sandy Sacks, ex-'Cat lineman in the '50's, he can take it in from 6 (as he did), but not from 2.? 

Go 'Cats!? Fight all 24 minutes to the end, and pull this sucker out.
