Sinz presented Hazell with a game ball in the locker room after the win. It was
Purdue's fourth win in Memorial Stadium since 2004.
On the last play of
the third quarter,
Keyante Green
broke a tackle to
reel off a 53-yard
run. It set up
Purdue's final
touchdown of the
game.
One of the turning points of the
game came with 10:50 left in the
third quarter when linebacker
Jimmy Herman (29) scooped up a
Josh Ferguson fumble, thwarting an
Illinois' scoring chance. The play ini-
tially was ruled an incomplete pass.
Two plays later, Appleby connected
with Danny Anthrop for an 80-yard
scoring strike.
Appleby didn't let go of the game
ball after Purdue's final kneel down
and took the ball home. He earned it.
Appleby's 76 yards rushing were the
most by a Boilermaker quarterback
in a single game since Rob Henry had
132 in a win at Northwestern in 2010.
Coincidentally, it was Henry's first start
as a Boilermaker quarterback.
