Casey and I break down the victory over Alabama.
If you listened to the previous episode of The Old Gold Show where Casey and I looked ahead to the game against Alabama you’ll know that he picked Purdue to win while also saying that Caleb Furst would have a big impact on this game. Turns out he was right on both counts. I was skeptical of both as I picked Alabama to win and said I’d be amazed if Furst was impactful. 0-2! Oh well, happy to be wrong in an instance such as this.
So, I of course had to start this episode by giving Casey all the praise in the world about being so darn smart. Then, we take a look at the game against Bama and who stood out, who made an impact, and how the improvement in a lot of these players has been incredible. We revisit the question of Daniel Jacobsen’s injury and what it means for this Purdue team and then ask, is Purdue a top 5 team again/still? Give us a listen and let us know in the comments.
