You sure are a special kind of ******. Purdue is widely known as quarterback u by people that have no affiliation with the school.
A Wall Street Journal article on November 18, 2012, pointed out that 'Purdue may be the ultimate Quarterback U. Since the 1970 merger (between the AFL and NFL), quarterbacks from Purdue have started 724 NFL games, easily the most of any major-conference program.' After Purdue QBs' 724 NFL games, the next best schools were the University of Washington (623 starts), Miami (573), University of Southern California (547) and Notre Dame (543).[1]
All that and yet iowa is still considered a better basketball school currently. Lulz
Can't find the chart from Reddit but here is OSU's record vs Big Ten teams since 2000.
Purdue 8-5 61.5%
Wisconsin 11-4 73.3%
PSU 14-5 73.7%
Iowa 7-2 77.7%
MSU 12-3 80%
Nebraska 4-1 80%
Michigan 16-3 84.2%
Illinois 13-2 86.7%
NW 10-1 90.9%
Minnesota 11-1 91.7%
Maryland 5-0 100%
Rutgers 5-0 100%
IU 16-0 100%
Purdue has as many wins against OSU in 13 games as IU, Rutgers, Maryland, Minnesota, Northwestern and Michigan do combined in 63 games.
That is a goofy statistic considering how bad we've been some of those years.

It was that Purdue had 3 Super Bowl winning QB's, my bad. I think only 2 schools can say that.
Yeah, it's most different Super Bowl winning QB's. Purdue and Alabama each have 3.
Michigan has the same number of Super Bowl winning QB's as Northern Iowa, Grambling, Navy, Miami (OH) and Louisiana Tech.
I'm ok with this. I will forever remember this and thank him. ESPECIALLY if we stay healthy this year. I think the Colts could make some noise!
I was at a bachelor party this weekend and there were 4 or 5 former Purdue football guys there. They said Painter has kind of gone off the grid a bit. I think he opened up a wedding venue with his wife or something like that. Bought some land and turned it into a venue for that kind of stuff.
Purdue has had some legit QBs. Funny how I don’t see Iowa there in the examples.

He has yet to respond to the plethora of evidence that his dumbass comment about Purdue fans making up the term qb u for ourselves isn't true. In other words, he has yet to admit he's wrong.
Soooo, stalking him until he does sounded like a good idea?
Man, you keep talking about gaping other dudes. It's kinda weird but makes sense because you're an Iowa fan. Seems to be the norm there.
So one guy wrote one article several years ago and all of a sudden it's common knowledge among college/nfl football? Give me a break. Don't be even more of an idiot than you already are.
Yikes. I see that “winning an internet argument” didn’t do much to boost morale.
All you have to do is Google quarterback u and Purdue and many articles show up. Apparently you're too stupid to use the search function.
You don’t have to worry about that. Iowa is off everybody’s radar.
Calling snu a shit stain, is an insult to shit stains.

Taylor Currie transferring from Wisconsin. I believe was committed to UM at some point. Redshirted this past year. Saw him play live a few times in high school (played on Foster Loyer’s team that won back to back state titles) and I was a bit suprised with his UM and Wisconsin offers. Foster was the far, far superior player on that team.
