First Quarter


The game began with Purdue taking an early lead through a successful field goal by Spencer Porath from 40 yards out. This initial momentum was short-lived as both teams struggled to make significant offensive gains throughout the quarter.

Ohio State's offense found its rhythm in the second quarter, scoring 24 unanswered points. The Buckeyes capitalized on their possession time and executed precise plays that overwhelmed Purdue's defense. Despite efforts from Purdue's defensive line, including contributions from Breeon Ishmail and Mani Powell who each recorded a sack, Ohio State's offensive line held strong.


Third Quarter


The third quarter saw no change in score as both defenses tightened up their play. Purdue’s CJ Nunnally IV made his mark by intercepting an Ohio State pass attempt, showcasing his defensive prowess and providing a brief spark for the Boilers.


Fourth Quarter


In the final quarter, Malachi Singleton connected with Jesse Watson for Purdue’s sole touchdown of the game on a seven-yard pass play. However, Ohio State responded swiftly with another touchdown and field goal to seal their victory.


Despite this setback for Purdue, players like Antonio Harris showed resilience in rushing attempts while Ryan Browne contributed significantly through passing yards even under pressure from Ohio State’s defense.
