____________________________________________________________________
Raise your hand if you thought Aiden O'Connelll would pass for fewer yards than Spencer Petras. Iowa's stingy defense limited AOC to a season low 168 yards on 43 pass attempts and puncuated that with 3 sacks, 2 INTs.
A couple more Purdue ass kickings like this one over the course of the next few years and I feel like the Hawks will get to just about even with Brohm for the agony of the David Bell years.
27 contest entries for this week and one stood above all others. Congratulations to OutbckBowl2017 (9-1) who earned this week's win.
5 finalists for the runner-up spot between JuiceHawk (8-2, TB13), MapleLeaf_Hawk (8-2, TB31), KuwaitHawk (8-2, TB61), Oviously Oblivious (8-2, TB22), and HawkPT (8-2, TB18).
Tyrone Tracy's goose egg (TB = 0) rewarded JuiceHawk 2nd place.
Bulls-eye award to Smalltownhawkfan 1 for correctly predicting TT's zero reception yards.
The Y/N overall race coming into focus as the field stretches out a bit more heading into the final stretch of the 2022 season ..........
