Max Klare - Tallies season-best outing Week 7Klare compiled six receptions (on eight targets) for 133 yards during Saturday's 50-49 overtime defeat against Illinois.
ImpactKlare logged season-highs across the board while also eclipsing over 100 receiving yards for the first time in his career. The sophomore tight end had a big role in Purdue's second-half explosion on offense, including a 62-yard reception on a double-reverse flea flicker in the third quarter followed by a reception on a two-point conversion pass. Redshirt freshman quarterback Ryan Browne logged 297 passing yards while starting in place of Hudson Card (concussion) on Saturday. Purdue's passing game will be at a disadvantage no matter who's under during next week's matchup versus Oregon, which was ranked No. 1 in the new AP Poll following Saturday's action.

Devin Mockobee - Scores two late touchdownsMockobee recorded 11 carries for 102 yards and one touchdown and gathered in all three targets for 31 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 50-49 overtime loss against Illinois...
ImpactMockobee scored two touchdowns in the final two minutes of the fourth quarter, first plunging into the end zone for a two-yard rushing score followed by a 13-yard touchdown reception. Purdue momentarily took a three-point lead after the junior running back's second score before ultimately falling after one-round of overtime play. Mockobee has been the most consistent piece of the Boilermakers' lackluster offense, which took off in the second half with backup quarterback Ryan Browne. The redshirt freshman quarterback also finished with a team-high 118 rushing yards on 17 carries to go along with 297 passing yards. Mockobee only has 71 carries this season, though he's tallied double-digit rushing attempts in all but one game. He'll likely be relied upon once again even if starting quarterback Hudson Card (concussion) returns for next week's matchup against Oregon, which was ranked No.1 in the AP Poll following Saturday's action.

Ryan Browne - Lights it up in OT lossBrowne completed 18 of 26 passes for 297 yards and three touchdowns during Saturday's 50-49 overtime defeat against Illinois. He also had 17 rushes for 118 yards.
ImpactBrowne made his first career start with Hudson Card sidelined by a concussion. He and the entire Boilermakers' offense came to life in the third quarter after totalling nine passing yards in the first half. The redshirt freshman hit touchdown passes of 53, eight and 13 yards in the second half. He also established a strong connection with tight end Max Klare, who caught six of eight targets for 133 yards, including a 62-yard connection on a double-reverse flea flicker in the third quarter and a two-point conversion in the fourth quarter. Browne also finished with a team-high in rushing yards ahead of running back Devin Mockobee, who logged 11 carries for 102 rushing yards. With Hudson Card's status still up in the air, Browne may need to start again for the Boilermakers next week, though they'll be going up against the now No.1-ranked Oregon Ducks.
