After an all around incredible performance from the Purdue defense in their 20-10 victory over Minnesota it seemed pretty likely that Purdue might see some weekly awards come their way. Well, today we got confirmation that Purdue is the home of the current B1G Defensive Player of the Week.
The league announced that Cam Allen has earned the award after grabbing two interceptions against the Golden Gophers. This is the second such award for Allen during his career at Purdue. For those curious he previously won the award last season in a game against then 2nd ranked Iowa where he also recorded two interceptions.
