Jeff Brohm learned from the last two weeks. He learned that at this point, Purdue is a running team. Purdue just can’t catch the ball on a consistent basis, or throw it accurately on a consistent basis, in order for the team to run the offense that he wants. So today, Purdue focused on the run and it paid off bigly.
The fourth quarter is where Purdue’s offense finally came alive. After scoring just 13 points through the first three quarters Purdue went off for 16 in the fourth. Unfortunately, this came with a cost. With Purdue up 22-10 Blough kept the ball and ran and was hit in the helmet, not once but twice, and got his leg twisted underneath him.
