3 things killed us today.
1. turnovers
2. injuries
3. youth
id also argue play calling, but you could also point to execution so...

I think this post sums it up well. Suprisingly I'm not too disappointed about this game. The offense showed some signs of life. The defense made adjustments at halftime and played much better despite all the injuries. This is a tough game on the road against a desperate Purdue team which we should have won. But, it doesn't really mean much as far as bowl consideration, so meh.
