Gophers’ buzz zapped in a 41-13 blowout loss at Purdue

  • On Saturday, Purdue routed Minnesota 41-13 at Ross-Ade Stadium, with running back Fame Ijeboi rushing 31 times for 195 yards and three touchdowns.
  • The Gophers entered the game 2-0 in Big Ten play after victories over Michigan and Washington, while Purdue had snapped a 19-game conference losing streak.
  • Purdue dominated the opening half with 310 total yards and a 98-yard touchdown drive that built a 10-0 lead, while Minnesota's offense converted only 4-for-15 on third downs.
  • During the second quarter, head coach Fleck lost a challenge on a spot, though kicker Luke Drzewiecki answered with a 49-yard field goal to make it 10-3.
  • Athletics Director Mark Coyle had emphasized the game's importance for positioning before the bye week, but the loss now impacts Minnesota's momentum ahead of the October 24 rivalry game against Iowa.
