Purdue hoping Blough or Sindelar emerge as QB. WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (AP) — Purdue's offense is floundering in Big Ten Conference play, and coach Jeff Brohm would like to see junior quarterback David Blough or redshirt sophomore Elijah Sindelar emerge as a clear starter. Through four conference games, the Boilermakers (3-4, 1-3 Big Ten) are a woeful 12 of 51 (23.5 percent) on third-down conversions and have scored only 21 points - one touchdown and five field goals - in the past 120 minutes, a 17-9 loss at Wisconsin and a 14-12 loss at Rutgers. Brohm is eager to settle on one quarterback with Nebraska (3-4, 2-2) up next on Saturday night.
