Purdue has not beaten a major conference opponent in a bowl game since the 2002 Sun Bowl when it came from behind to beat Washington. That’s quite a long drought. After getting off to a solid start by winning the first two bowl games under Joe Tiller to move to 6-1 all-time in the postseason Purdue has gone 3-7 in the following ten postseason games. Tiller’s teams were infamous for starting slow in bowl games, then roaring back. Twice it lost to Georgia in overtime, and a late collapse against Arizona State in 2004 cost us another bowl win.
