Last game: 31-29 win @ Maryland
Next game: Oct. 15 vs. Nebraska

Aidan O’Connell had an Aidan O’Connell-type performance with 360 passing yards and two touchdowns against the Terrapins. Payne Durham racked up 109 receiving yards on seven receptions and a touchdown, which ended up being the Boilermakers game-winning touchdown catch in the fourth quarter.

Purdue has now won three straight games after their heartbreaking loss to Syracuse in Week 3, and now their only two losses on the season have come against teams that are a combined 10-0 and are both ranked in the top 25. The Boilermakers are hoping to continue their success against a Nebraska team that just barely squeaked by one of the worst teams in the Big Ten in Week 6.
