Missouri 40, Purdue 37: A Long Way to Go

This weekend I drove more than 500 miles to watch two college football games in a 12 hour span. I headed to Toledo on Friday, took in the Miami-Toledo game at noon Saturday, then headed 216 miles across U.S. 24 to make it to West Lafayette just in time for kickoff of Missouri-Purdue. It was a long day. On one end I saw a talented Miami team toy with a pretty good MAC team before laying the smack down in the fourth quarter. On the other end I saw a Purdue team that laccks talent in many areas battle and nearly pull off a second straight upset of an SEC team.
