No. 10

There was high drama on the Purdue sidelines for much of the fourth quarter and overtime, especially when the Illini lined up for the game-winning field goal attempt at the end of regulation, which is when this image was taken. 

No. 9

Hazell pulls defensive tackle Eddy Wilson from the playing field early in the fourth quarter, moments after Wilson was tagged with an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty immediately following being whistled for roughing the passer. Yet it was penalties that had much to do with Illinois' undoing. The home team was whistled for infractions 12 times for 125 yards, the most penalty yards by a Purdue opponent dating back to 1970 (at least).

No. 8

The play of the game was Leroy Clark's fumble recovery in overtime after Gelen Robinson forced his second fumble of his career. It was Clark's first fumble recovery as a Boilermaker.

No. 7

Illinois quarterback Chayce Crouch gets flipped on his helmet after being tackled by Navon Mosley. It was one of a team-high 13 tackles for Mosley and the most by a Boilermaker freshman in the Darrell Hazell Era (Ja'Whaun Bentley had 11 stops in two separate games in 2014). Crouch led all rushers with 137 yards, the most by a Boilermaker opponent quarterback since Indiana's Tre Roberson had 154 in the 2013 Bucket Game. 

No. 6

Brian Lankford-Johnson's 127 yards rushing was the second-most by a Boilermaker true freshman in his first college start, trailing only the man he replaced in the lineup, Markell Jones. Jones had 157 yards at Michigan State in 2015. Lankford-Johnson is just the 15th Boilermaker freshman (including redshirts) to break the century mark on the ground in a single game. 

No. 5

One of the game's (and the season's for that matter) most difficult moments occurred when senior receiver Domonique Young was carted off the field with what appeared to be a season-ending leg injury. Young led all Purdue receivers with six catches for 59 yards and likely will conclude his Purdue career with 50 receptions. 

No. 4

Malik Kimbrough's face lights up after reaching the end zone following his 45-yard scoring reception. The play gave Purdue its largest lead of the game, 21-13, with 3:07 left in the second quarter. The Boilermaker coaching staff made good on its promise to get the junior college transfer more involved in the offense as Kimbrough snagged the first three receptions of his career, totaling 51 yards.

No. 3

The Purdue field goal defensive unit celebrates after Illini kicker Chase McGlaughlin missed a 40-yard attempt as time expired in the fourth quarter. The ball in the right corner of the frame gives clear indication that the kick hit the right crossbar, causing Wilson (18) and Da'Wan Hunte and the Boilermaker sideline to erupt in celebration.

No. 2

Hazell and the entire Purdue sideline could barely look as J.D. Dellinger lined up for the game-winning field goal attempt in overtime. Moments later, Dellinger nailed the 28-yard field goal, giving Purdue its first walk-off field goal since Paul Griggs, also a freshman, nailed a 46-yarder as time expired to beat Iowa in 2012. It also marked Purdue's fourth overtime win its history, the first by a field goal. In addition, with 37 seconds left in the third quarter, Dellinger hit a key 37-yard attempt, a career best, giving the Boilermakers a short-lived 24-23 lead.
