Austin Appleby's first pass of the season was a 23-yard
scoring strike to Danny Anthrop, which got a rousing
celebration for the sophomore QB from guard Jason King.
After the game, Coach Darrell Hazell wasn't prepared to
name a starter for Notre Dame. If Appleby gets the call
Saturday, he will be the first Boilermaker quarterback
since Scott Campbell in 1980 to make his first college start
against Notre Dame.
A pivotal moment in the game came near the 10-minute mark
of the second quarter when Boilermaker safety Frankie Williams
was ejected for a targeting penalty. It came on the first play from
scrimmage after Purdue had gained some momentum, cutting
the Chippewas lead to 14-7. Four plays later, CMU scored, making
it 21-7 and the visitors were never seriously threatened again.
Purdue was plagued with penalties at inopportune times, including two in the first half on kickoff
returns by Raheem Mostert. For the game, the Boilermakers had 69 yards in seven penalties.
Etling was hit and the ball popped loose, it went right into
the hands of offensive tackle J.J. Prince. Prince returned the
fumble three yards.
