Purdue vs. Ohio State Football Game




This past weekend Tristan & I went to West Lafayette, Indiana (home of Purdue Univ.) for the college football Big 10 undefeated Top 25 game between the Buckeyes of Ohio State and the Boilermakers of Purdue University. Now, you may be saying, wait - why would Lana or Tristan care about this game. Let me explain....As you know, Tristan and I both love college football; however, Indiana has traditionally not been all that great at football (we're more of a basketball school), so Tristan's "adopted" Ohio State as his football team to cheer for. This is nothing new - he's been a fan of them ever since I met him. The game was great! We had a blast! Ohio State fans are CRAZY and definitely travel in packs - there were 65,000 people at the game and about 20,000 of them were decked out in scarlet and grey for the Buckeyes. The entire game all you could hear was O-H-I-O being shouted around the stadium....it was insane!! Ohio State schlacked Purdue 23-7. (And Indiana won also - we're now 5-1! Go Hoosiers!!)

IU Football vs. Akron (09/15)




Yes, it's that time of year again! College Football Season! Woo Hoo! Tristan and I (especially Tristan) love college football! Though our Hoosiers are not always the greatest - we firmly believe this is the year for "Play 13" - our rally cry to get to a bowl game for Coach Hoeppner. We're currently 3-0 (undefeated) after beating Akron last Saturday.

We tailgated with our friend Mike and our neighbors Christan & Todd with burgers, chips & hot dogs after the big 5K! There are a few photos of our festivities posted above! (IU won the game 41-24). Go Hoosiers!!
