Hammer and Rails Readers React Results: Purdue Football Improvement

I’m writing this around 8:30 PM on Friday night. Somehow, Purdue fans still have more than 24 hours to wait until the week 3 matchup between the Purdue Boilermakers and the UCLA Bruins. In the meantime, let’s finalize what fans thought about week 2. In retrospect this seemed like an easier question than I meant it to be, but at least there’s a second question I can throw in as well.

My initial question was which side of the ball improved more in week 2, the offense or the defense? Simple, right?

A resounding 94% of respondents chose the offense as the most improved unit from week 1 to week 2. Not suprising given the results of week 2 and specifically the fact that the defense gave up a 4th and 15 to (basically) end the game. Leaves a bitter taste in your mouth.

Up next, I asked in The Feed, who would win tomorrow’s matchup, the Bruins or the Boilermakers. Let’s check out the results.

77% of respondents think tomorrow will be another long night for the Boilermakers. Let’s hope that’s not the case. If you’d like to put your money where your mouth is you can head over to FanDuel and see all the odds for this one.
