Left Tackle
1. Kevin
Pamphile 64
6-5, 300, Jr.
Pamphile had some
rough sledding in
the middle of the
year, when he was plagued by
penalties. He���s better, although
still not as technically sound
as one would like from a left
tackle.
2. Justin Kitchens 51
6-4, 294, Jr.
Left Guard
1. Peters Drey
67
6-6, 302, Sr. (5)
Drey is playing like
one of Purdue���s
better offensive
lineman, and you couldn���t have
said that early in the season.
He���s healthier, more flexible
and more agile, all of which has
added to him making improvements the last few games.
2. Cody Davis 59
6-5, 286, Jr.
Wide Receiver
1. O.J. Ross 4
5-10, 188, Jr.
51 rec., 425 yards, 2 TDs*
Ross and Macarthy have
proven to be a pretty good
combination on the outside
for the Boilermakers and give Purdue
hope for its wide receiver corps for next
season. You���d think that both will be
starters.
2. Dolapo Macarthy 16
6-5, 220, R-Fr.
Center
1. Rick Schmeig
76
6-3, 305, Sr. (5)
Like Drey, Schmeig
will play his last
game for the
Boilermakers in the bowl vs.
Oklahoma State. The two have
been major contributors on
the line for a number of years,
as Purdue will look for quality
replacements next season.
2. Robert Kugler 57
6-3, 280, R-Fr.
Wide Receiver
1. Antavian Edison 13
5-11, 175, Sr.
57 rec., 625 yards, 8 TDs*
12 rush, 29 yards*
Since Patrick Higgins took
over as offensive play-caller
three games ago, Edison hasn���t had a single
touch as a rusher out of the backfield. That���s
been a good development, considering his
limited effectiveness. He���s a good receiver,
though, and has shown that this season.
2. Raheem Mostert 8
5-11, 180, So.
Quarterback
1. Robert Marve 9
6-1, 212, Sr. (6)
145-of-219 for 1,522 yards, 13 TDs / 3 int.*
Marve might hold the key to a Purdue
upset of Oklahoma State. If he plays like
an All-Star, and he���s capable of doing
so, then perhaps the Boilers can put
up enough points to stay with the Cowboys. But that
might be a lot to ask of one player.
2. Rob Henry 15, 6-2, 200, Jr.
��� OR ���
Caleb TerBush 19, 6-5, 225, Sr. (5)
Right Guard
1. Robert
Kugler 57
6-3, 280, R-Fr.
Kugler���s been the
biggest surprise of
the season, with
his ability to step in to a starting role and become the line���s
best and most consistent player. He���ll have a spot for years to
come, probably as a center.
2. Devin Smith 71
6-7, 320, Jr.
Tight End
1. Crosby Wright 82
6-3, 248, Sr. (5)
22 rec., 283 yards*
Wright has been the starter
much of the second half
of the season and played
significantly in the last two games of
the year, when Holmes was out with a
rib injury. Holmes said he expects to be
back for OSU.
2. Gabe Holmes 86
6-5, 247, Jr.
Running Back
1. Akeem Shavers 24
5-11, 203, Sr.
167 rush, 778 yards, 6 TDs*
14 rec., 316 yards, 1 TD*
Shavers has gotten a bulk of the carries
the last few games, and thrived, showing
he can be a workhorse-like running back.
Bolden (hamstring) had improved significantly in the
days leading up to the game and expected to play.
2. Ralph Bolden 23
5-9, 200, Sr. (5)
Right Tackle
2. Justin
Kitchens 51
6-4, 294, Jr.
Kitchens has solidified Purdue���s right
tackle spot, which
had been largely handled by
Foy until the last few games of
the season. Kitchens is more
athletic, which is a trait the
Boilers have coveted in their
offensive linemen.
2. Trevor Foy 78
6-7, 300, Jr.
Wide Receiver
1. Gary Bush 6
6-0, 185, Jr.
41 rec., 360 yards, 7 TDs*
Bush has shown some bigplay ability with his seven
touchdowns this season,
but he���s also become a
more reliable receiver, holding onto
the ball rather than suffering through
drops. Torwudzo played a little late in
the season.
