We have avoided 0-12. Now what?
Purdue played a football game today. We only get 12 of those per year, and 13 if we’re lucky.
Purdue scored more points than the opposition. That is a much more rare event, as it happened for only the 7th time in the last 37 games.
Let’s take away all the negatives from the Hazell era for a moment. Let’s take away the vitriol of Morgan Burke’s legacy in the lowest attendance for a home opener since the Eisenhower administration. The object of the day was to enjoy a perfect late summer afternoon, watch some football, and see a Purdue victory.
