In just 12 weeks from today we will be sitting (okay, just me and about 12 other people) in Ross-Ade Stadium awaiting the kickoff against Eastern Kentucky. Yeah, this is probably the least amount of excitement I have felt for a Purdue football season, but there is still excitement. Maybe we get to see something surprising happen. One of the players that can help in that surprise is today's tight end.
