What a football game. After Purdue got down 7-0 early many of us got quick flashes of the last time Purdue played in the Music City Bowl against Auburn. No one wanted to sit through that again. Luckily, we didn’t have to.
In a game that started at 3:00 and didn’t end until nearly 8:00 the offense was abundant and the defense was scarce, until it wasn’t. With the score tied at 45 Tennessee had a shot to get a FG to win the game but the kicker didn’t have the leg. To overtime we go. Purdue was lucky enough to win the toss and opted to go on defense first.
