Taulia Tagovailoa made a beautiful throw on the run to an open Dyches. Dyches proceeded to carry Purdue corner Cory Trice about 15 yards to the end zone for a 68-yard score. The dynamic play tied the game at 17 going into the half.
Tagovailoa has had another stellar game to this point, with 169 yards and 1 TD. Dyches is the leading Maryland receiver after his 68-yard TD.
The play was the longest of the year for Dyches, who has already surpassed his previous season-high performance of 60 yards. We have a good game in College Park, with both teams seeking to get their 2nd B1G win of the season.
