Purdue makes home opener Moorerific
Rondale Moore #4 and Elijah Sindelar #2
Purdue Holds Strong (Source: USPNews Bruce E. Spencer)
Vanderbilt strikes first with a 68 yard drive opener. Vaughn running back for the Commodores finished off the drive with a one yard run. However it didn't take the home team long to answer the call with what would be a #2 QB, Sindelar TD pass for 12 yards. That QB weapon would become a very familiar pain for Vanderbilt as the day wore on. Purdue's defense dug in and held their opponent to a field goal. Boilermakers would lead at half time 14-10. From that point they never looked back. Passing school was open and he had a whole lot of teaching to give in Commodores camp! It would be from the book of MOORE! Sindelar throws for over 500 yards, 5 TD's and ran for a TD. Pretty stellar day. The crushing duo of WR #4 Rondale Moore &QB #2 Sindelar of 13 catchs for 220 yards! A career high day for Moore! The third quarter scores and defensive hold for Boilermakers separated the day and Sindelar and company would capture a home victory with a great win, 42-24. If there is a down side it would be a balanced attack. Right now the running game is not where coach Holt needs to be. He knows being a one dimensional team will catchup with you. You can't expect your QB to go out and throw for over 500 yards every week. Just not going to happen. However coach Holt was pleased with many aspect of the game and the toughness and grit his team showed today.
