Quote of the Day
“If we can eliminate explosive plays, I think that obviously was one of our Achilles’ heels from last year. We had guys in positions to make plays. Now, we just got to make them. That’s going to be our key to success. If we make teams earn it down the field here, then nine times out of 10, they’re going to screw it up before we do.”
– Purdue defensive coordinator Kevin Kane
