Purdue gives Sam Foltz jersey to Nebraska before today's game
Nebraska has had many of its opponents give a tribute to the Huskers’ former punter Sam Foltz prior to their games this season. Foltz died in a tragic car accident over the summer.
Before today’s game between Purdue and Nebraska, the Boilermakers gave Nebraska a Foltz jersey to pay their homage.
Thanks @BoilerFootball.
Means a lot to be reminded how many lives Sam touched.#SaturdaysAreForSam #ForeverTwoSeven pic.twitter.com/dZavEFIndT

Each Purdue player is also repping a 27 decal to honor Foltz.
