Purdue got its first win of the season on Saturday when the Boilermakers out-gunned Vanderbilt 42-24.

At one point during the team’s explosive offensive performance, Purdue president Mitch Daniels decided to do some pushups. Why?
Because the Boilermakers just scored a TD and got to 28 points. So, Daniels proceeded to do 28 pushups.
Take a look:
I can't make this up.. After one of many #Purdue touchdowns against Vanderbilt, President of the University @purduemitch flipped his hat backwards, dropped down with the drum line, and gave 'em 28. This guy loves the Boilers. pic.twitter.com/S3X07QweU2

This is great. When the school’s president gets involved in a positive manner, you know things are going well. On Saturday, things were going well for the Boilermakers when they got their first win of the season.
