There are some things in life that are only for the Sickos amongst us. Well, waiting for Purdue football to kickoff against UCLA at 11:00 PM in the year 2026 is certainly one of those things. Purdue is largely picked to finish last or next to last in the conference and they are going to make us wait until 11:00 PM (eastern time) just to see the opening kickoff of a football game. In this economy? I guess that’s what you get for being part of a conference that spans the entire continental United States instead of just being the fun Midwestern conference we were always meant to be.

Then, after that I discuss Gicarri Harris and how he’s done so far at Purdue and what he will need to work on to earn even more minutes next season. The biggest roadblock for Harris is none other than teammate CJ Cox who seems to have prevented Harris from entering the starting lineup. This despite Harris being remarkably consistent from one season to the next during his time at Purdue. Seriously, look at the stats, or better yet listen to me describe them in this episode of the Boiler Alert podcast.
