Purdue vs Northwestern: Winning is Winning

Purdue hosted the Northwestern Wildcats on Senior Day and did not look sharp. Fortunately for the Boilermakers, Northwestern showed their lack of playmakers and couldn’t muster more than 2 scoring drives. Despite decent numbers for Aiden O’Connell, he had a rough time putting the ball on target, missing several open receivers. On defense, the Boilermakers did their jobs against a Northwestern offense that is simply lacking talent. This game should not have been this close, as another unsportsmanlike penalty took a touchdown off the board when Purdue looked to go up 21-3. But as the great Dom Toretto once said, “winning is winning”.
