Normally on the countdown, we feature players whose number corresponds to how many days are left until Purdue’s first game. There is not #69 on the roster, but we don’t want to waste a nice opportunity, so we’re going to talk about the best game in Jeff Brohm’s career so far: the 49-20 (69 point total) win against Ohio State, which kept them out of the playoffs (oops).
First Quarter 1:10 | Purdue 7, Ohio State 0
The first scoring drive of the game began for Purdue inside their own 5 yard line. Given Ohio State’s power throughout the season, I think most of hoped to at least get down the field far enough so the punter wasn’t too backed up.
