per Greder:
With great field position, Purdue tacked on a 42-yard field goal for a 10-0 lead en route to a 20-10 win during the U’s Homecoming. Those three points looked as if they would decide the game until Purdue was able to tack on the late touchdown drive in the fourth quarter.
“Felt like we needed to do something,” Fleck explained. “It only cost us three points, but it was worth it. I would do it again. We got to be able to get fourth-and-1.”
Go Gophers!!

Gophers coach P.J. Fleck on early fourth-down decision: ‘I would do it again’
Trailing 7-0 with the ball at its own 29-yard line, the U went for a first down and failed, using its wildcat package for the first time this season.
