Boilers fall 23-12 to Notre Dame in season opener
After attempting a late comeback, Purdue eventually lost 23-12 to Notre Dame on Saturday, though coach Danny Hope believes the team grew up a bit.
“I think we grew up some today as a football team,” Hope said. “I think we did some good things. We were not as consistent as we need to be. A lot of people counted us way out in this game. I am proud of the football team to be in a position to challenge in the end.”
Purdue was able to hold off Notre Dame for about 18 minutes into the first half until the Fighting Irish found the end zone on a 22 yard run by Armando Allen.
