player ready...There is no room for paper hats and noise-makers in Purdue’s Capital One Bowl budget. The Boilermakers won’t be ringing in 2004 with any festivities on New Year’s Eve. In fact, Purdue coach Joe Tiller hopes his team is asleep when the clock strikes midnight, 13 hours before they play Georgia.”We have a meal, we go to a movie together, just like we do every Friday before a game,” Tiller said. “They we have an offense and a defense meeting, then we have a bedcheck and that’s it. Party time at 10:45.” What movie will they watch? “The Last Samuri” with Tom Cruise. “It’s not all bad,” said senior reciver John Standeford. “Playing in a Jan. 1 bowl makes up for it.” Lucky Georgia gets to stay out until 11 p.m.
