The Boilermakers extended their winning streak to four after Saturday night's 43-37 victory over Nebraska
If you thought the second half of the season would bring more emotional relief and Purdue would begin to drift away from these tight games, you were mistaken.Four-quarter games. No lead is safe. No game-changing play is too daunting to overcome. If you don’t want your emotions tested and tied in knots, don’t watch, listen or follow. And there are five more games, all with implications in the Big Ten West.
“We’ve seen the evidence we could do it. That gives our guys confidence. We’ve been in this situation before. Not only is it not new but it’s normal to us. We use that to our advantage.”Maybe the Boilermakers had turned the corner after reeling off 17 straight points in the final five minutes of the first half to open up a 27-10 lead.
Despite the numerous busted coverages in the secondary, the poor tackling in the open field and Nebraska receivers running free across the Ross-Ade Stadium turf, the Boilermakers did what they couldn’t do earlier in the season. For the moment, it slowed down the Huskers’ big-play momentum, which included 273 receiving yards on seven catches from receiver Trey Palmer. But not even the 13-point lead was safe since it took Nebraska three plays to make it a one-score game. Again.
“Aidan’s play in the fourth quarter was off the charts and that was an elite level of playing quarterback,” Brohm said. As you know, nothing has been or will be easy for the Boilermakers, who remain in a position to win the Big Ten West.
