Has Minnesota already exacted its latest toll on Purdue? We have obviously seen Robbie Hummel x2 and Rondale Moore, but there have been other, more subtle ways that the Gophers have damaged us. For example: in the Saints-Bucs playoff game the Saints were driving with the lead in the third quarter when tight end Jared Cook fumbled in the flat. Who recovered it? Antoine Winfield Jr., a rookie from… Minnesota. It turned the game and probably ended Drew Brees’ career on a bittersweet note.
Let’s hope got their bloodletting out of the way, as we have a basketball game to win, and it is on that hated floor that cost us a Final Four.
