It was the best of times it was the blurst of times.
Like 1,000 monkeys typing at 1,000 typewriters there’s always a chance with Purdue football that a masterpiece will be painted. While the first half wasn’t a masterpiece, the defense was a sieve at best, it was certainly a solid first half offensively. Purdue put up 17 points against a fairly stout Penn State defense. Purdue got creative with shovel passes, the wildcat, a fumblerooski (that didn’t work AT ALL), and came away with 17 points. Markell Jones also looked like his old self just briefly in that first half as he came away with a couple bruising runs taking on defenders.
