Purdue overcame 3 second half turnovers to beat Maryland 31-29 on the road to move 4-2 on the season.
Aidan O’Connell threw for over 300 yards and Purdue put up 31 points on the road, and they needed every bit of both to hold off Taulia Tagovailoa and the Maryland Terrapins.
Purdue tight end Payne Durham went for 107 yards, his first 100 yard receiving game of the season, including a 58 yarder late in the fourth quarter to extend Purdue’s lead to 8 when Maryland defenders lost the tight end completely before the big 87 carried multiple defenders all the way down to the two yard line with just over 2 minutes left.
