UConn’s had a rough week.
David Bell isn’t trying to make it better.
The Purdue wide receiver caught a screen pass from Jack Plummer and literally weaved his way around the UConn defense for a 26-yard touchdown — the Boilermakers’ second of the day.

Earlier this week, UConn coach Randy Edsall announced he was moving up his retirement timeline and stepped down immediately. This is interim head coach Lou Spanos’ first game at the helm for the Huskies, who still have yet to score against Purdue.
The Boilermakers scored again on the next drive and currently lead the Huskies 21-0 in the 2nd quarter.
