Spoilermakers Exposed

Well after Middle Tenn., Southwest Missouri State, Rice, a Bye, Purdue came home to harsh reality and an overpowering Irish defense, some great running and a Tommy Rees who’s only criticism is overthrowing receivers.  The Spoilermakers and in danger of losing their historical moniker.  Fear not, they play hapless, luckless and worthless Minnesota next week.  But after that it gets ugly with games against PSU, IL, MI, Wis, and OSU.  We don’t see a bowl game or winning season for these guys.

Some shout-outs in no particular order:Austin Collinsworth – 3 solo tackles, all on special teams.

George Atkinson III – two tackles on special teams.

David Ruffer – Hang in their son.   How about kicking more medium range field goals from the left hash mark in practice?  Say an extra 10-12.

Michael Floyd – All American.  Potential first round draft pick.  Great game.  Don’t let it go to your head.  Stay focused.  Good decision on returning for your senior year heh?  Too bad Jimmy didn’t.

Ben Turk – Well you only had to punt twice but you averaged 44 yards.  Good job.

Theo Riddick – Gone missing at Purdue?

John Goodman – Punt returning can only get better (hopefully).

Kyle Brindza – Ditch the florescent green shoes until you can consistently kick the ball deep into the end zone.

Cierre Wood - Man you are a breath of fresh air for a rushing game that has been missing for so long.

Jonas Gray - Ditto

Jordan Cowart – We all watched as Coach Kelly discussed your personal foul for fighting.  Hey, you’re not playing for the “Prayerful Choirboys”.  You are playing for THE FIGHTING IRISH.  Good job son.

Ethan Johnson - Hope and pray the injury (ankle sprain?) is slight and you're be ready to go against Air Force.

Luke Massa, Matt Mulvey, Kona Schenke, Deion Walker - Congrats on your first playing time.
