Boiler Alert! Kane Fired, Basketball Wins, Football Heads to Iowa
We decided to record our previous episode a day earlier than normal and so of course Kevin Kane was fired on the day we normally record.
Key points
- The Iowa defense is one of the best in the country and the Purdue offense is likely going to struggle.
- Now, Iowa isn’t exactly an offensive juggernaut, but they are better than they’ve been in years past.
- Then we talk about Purdue men’s basketball’s first win of the season against Illinois State.
WEST LAFAYETTE, INDIANA - NOVEMBER 09: Caden Pierce #8 of the Purdue Boilermakers drives to the hoop during the second half against the Illinois State Redbirds at Mackey Arena on November 9, 2026 in West Lafayette, Indiana.
This time the team is traveling to Iowa City to take on the Hawkeyes and let’s just say I’m not confident.
Additional details
- Then, Ryan and I take a look at the next football game.
- Did this team unlock something during that 21-2 run or should we still be very worried about this team?
- This is our first chance to dance on his (metaphorical) grave.
