When the crowd at Ross-Ade Stadium wasn’t bearing down on him, it was Purdue’s future NFL first round draft pick on the defensive line.
The Boilermakers had roared to life in the fourth quarter, scoring two touchdowns to force overtime, then another to force a second. Now, in the shadow of Purdue’s goal line, Peyton Ramsey had a chance to end it all.
He could reclaim the bucket and cement himself into Indiana football lore forever. He found Peyton Hendershot over the middle on a third-and-10 to get here in the first place. One big moment to give him a chance at another.
