GRADES AND SUCH
• This was Aidan O'Connell's highest-graded game of the season, Indiana State notwithstanding. He was the offense's highest-graded play.
• Great game for the offensive line, as Gus Hartwig, Spencer Holstege and Eric Miller were 2-3-4 on the grade scale, followed by Charlie Jones and Devin Mockobee.
• Payne Durham was actually the lowest-graded player on the offense, largely due to a bad pass-pro grade.
PASSING GAME
• Purdue again won without the deep ball, as O'Connell was 0-for-3 on throws of 20-plus yards
• O'Connell's passing splits ...
Clean: 28-42, 321 yards, 3 TD, 1 INT (great grade)
Pressure: 7-12, 70, 1 TD
No Blitz: 28-42, 290, 3 TD, INT (great grade)
Blitzed: 7-12, 101, TD
Concept ...
Playaction: 7-12, 84
No Playaction: 28-42, 307, 4 TD, INT (great grade)
Screen: 2-2, 24
No Screen: 33-52, 367, 4 TD, INT
• PFF has Purdue docked for eight dropped passes, by seven different players, which seems like a big number.
• Purdue totaled 191 yards after the catch.
PURDUE RUN GAME
• Purdue ran 20 times over either left end or right end and averaged eight yards over left and 6.1 over right end.
• Purdue totaled 112 yards after contact, but that's an average of just 2.43.

Bryce Hampton 12
Antonio Stevens 6
GRADES AND SUCH
• Jalen Graham was the defense's highest-graded player, followed by Jack Sullivan and Clyde Washington among high-volume-snaps guys.
• Cam Allen, Jamari Brown and Jacob Wahlberg all graded toward the bottom of Purdue's chart, Allen and Wahlberg due to bad tackling grades.
• Purdue was only docked for five missed tackles, two by Cam Allen.
But Sanoussi Kane, Cory Trice and Allen all graded poorly as tacklers.
Coverage grades are strangely not as bad as you'd think, but Jamari Brown and Allen both didn't fare well there.
On the Nebraska side, Trey Palmer is credited with getting 111 yards off both Allen and Brown.
• Branson Deen was credited with five pressures, Jack Sullivan four and Kydran Jenkins three.
