Inside the Play: Jeremy Larkin’s huge run

Related Topics: Markus Bailey, Tommy Doles

It’ll be easy to remember the frustration that came with NU’s unresolved quarterback situation or the anemic second-half play of the offense against Purdue. Let’s remember the good times. Jeremy Larkin is the truth. He ripped off 143 yards and two touchdowns and hauled in four passes for 20 yards as well.

It’s not time to hail Larkin as Justin Jackson 2.0 quite yet, but the sophomore has proved to be quite the talent, with impressive straight-line speed and great instincts.

The highlight of the night was Larkin’s 46-yard scamper in the first quarter to set up NU’s second touchdown.
