Furby to Fool Heisman Voters Once Again

Finally, a blogger who sees Curtis Painter for what he is... er, rather, what he isn't. Namely, a legitimate Heisman candidate (For the record, Painter is first and foremost a Furby look-a-like).

Yahoo's Dr. Saturday serves up an excellent preview of this weekend's Purdue vs. Oregon game.

According to the M.D., Purdue has lost 16 straight against non-MAC teams that finish the season with winning records, and Furby is 1-9 in his career against Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, Notre Dame, and Wisconsin.

Great points, I've been trying to tell them to my dad every time he deludes himself into believing Purdue has put it together.

No one is as hard as I am on Joe Tiller's football team, but I'm not sold on Oregon either. I certainly don't see anyone running wild on the Boilermakers' defense.

Sure, Furby has never been able to elevate Purdue in big games, but the Ducks are the Michigan State to USC's Ohio State out west.

I realize Oregon boosters have laundered a lot of money to bring the current talent into Eugene, I get that, but I'm sorry... it isn't going to be enough Saturday.

Since this isn't a big game, Purdue FTW... On its way to becoming the worst 10-2 team in big conference college football history. And further entrenching Furby as a "real" Heisman candidate and project(ed) first round pick in next year's NFL Draft.
