Don’t sleep on Chubba!
On Saturday night, the younger of the Purdy brothers put Nebraska’s offense on his back with an impressive 55-yard touchdown run to get the Huskers on the board.
CHUBBA. PURDY. 55 YARDS.

Purdy has the Huskers up 14 on Luke Fickell’s Wisconsin Badgers but it hasn’t just been his legs. So far the sophomore QB is 6-of-7 for 87 yards and a passing touchdown as well.
