We've been an attractive bowl team b/c of our broad alum base and that we travel reasonably well (all Big Ten teams do, really). 7-5 is a complete letdown/disappointment for us but someone will still invite us somewhere. I can't imagine being shut out. When we play well, we're actually an exciting offense and that's usually appealling to bowls. <BR/><BR/>Also, we're 3-5 in conference, not 2-5. We beat powerhouses Minnesota, Iowa and Northwestern.J Moneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09925161304409415806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5783919656736552601.post-35273019147636316612007-11-18T19:46:00.000+03:302007-11-18T19:46:00.000+03:30If Purdue gets selected ahead of Indiana or Michig...If Purdue gets selected ahead of Indiana or Michigan State after losing its last two games to them then the selection process is a joke. You guys deserve a bowl, just as much as you deserved yesterday's win. Even as Purdue was making its comeback I kept watching the scoreboard hopeing Michigan State wouldn't pull off the comeback it was attempting, but it did and now we may not go anywhere.T-Millhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06658800030850579943noreply@blogger.com
