Jeff Brohm didn’t mince words when it came to describing how Purdue did against Iowa on Saturday.

The Boilermakers got a 24-3 beat down at the hands of the Hawkeyes at home in West Lafayette. Little was happening for Purdue on offense, and the Boilermakers found themselves on their own four-yard line in the first quarter.

Despite a 41-yard pass from QB Aidan O’Connell to send it downfield, Purdue was unable to capitalize on that possession. It was a common theme, as the Boilermakers were able to put just 3 points on the scoreboard in the 2nd quarter.

Brohm summarized the loss best when he said after the game “we got our butts kicked.”

It’s the second straight loss for the Boilermakers, who suffered a loss to Wisconsin last Saturday. Purdue will look to become bowl eligible as the Boilermakers take on No. 14 Illinois next Saturday.
