WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — No matter the quarterback, a double-digit scoring total continues to evade Northwestern.
In Cole Freeman’s first collegiate start, the Wildcats (1-10, 1-7 B1G) fell to Purdue (7-4, 5-3 B1G), 17-9. Northwestern kept it close throughout the contest, but two turnovers and just 78 yards through the air from Freeman allowed the Boilermakers to stymie the ‘Cats.
The sophomore quarterback threw his 78 yards on 9-for-20 passing with an interception. Evan Hull was once again the focal point of the Northwestern offense, as he put up 105 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries.
