The score against Wisconsin was Durham’s 4th of the year. Durham has 310 receiving yards on the season, behind only WR Charlie Jones on the Boilermakers.
Unfortunately, Purdue is currently trailing at Wisconsin 35-10 in the 4th quarter. A loss would knock Purdue out of a tie for first place in the B1G West with Illinois idle this week.
The Boilermakers will have a bye week in Week 9 before playing host to the Iowa Hawkeyes in Week 10.
