Despite the fact that Purdue football is just so damn "boring," the Boilermakers will play their annual grudge match against Notre Dame at 8 PM on Saturday evening, 9/26. Presumably, lights will be brought in. (Though, given the way they grow the grass strategically in South Bend, Fat Charlie will likely insist on a kill switch for the lights to use at his decidedly advantageous discretion.)

The game will be on ABC or ESPN which, you'll recall, was the prime spot for some of the best games of the year last fall. I don't mean to doubt our boys, but I don't see this one being one of those kinds of games.

Looking forward to Chuck's last season, though.
