Notre Dame tops Purdue in Kelly's debut with Irish

NCAA Football Betting Lines

09/04/2010 - South Bend, IN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Dayne Crist passed for 205 yards and a touchdown, as Notre Dame topped the Purdue Boilermakers, 23-12, in Brian Kelly's Fighting Irish debut.

Kelly, a proven winner that resurrected both the Central Michigan and Cincinnati programs, came to Notre Dame (1-0) after leading the Bearcats to a 12-0 regular season in 2009. Crist, making his first collegiate start, completed 19-of-26 passes in the victory, while Armando Allen Jr. paced the ground attack with 93 yards and a touchdown on 18 carries.

Purdue (0-1) quarterback Robert Marve, a junior who sat out last season after transferring from Miami, hit on 31-of-42 tosses with 220 yards and two picks. He did have a rushing touchdown for the Boilermakers, who finished 5-7 a year ago. Keith Smith was his main outlet, as he pulled in 12 passes for 80 yards.

The Irish kicked off the scoring with a 22-yard touchdown run by Allen with just over two minutes left in the opening quarter. The run capped a seven- play, 84-yard drive.

Early in the second quarter, Notre Dame's David Ruffer made a 22-yard field goal.

Purdue countered behind a Carson Wiggs 25-yard field goal with just under four minutes remaining before the half. The Boilermakers settled for the field goal after a 15-play, 79-drive stalled in Notre Dame territory.

Ruffer gave the Irish a 13-3 halftime advantage on a 46-yard field goal with 43 second left.

The Irish extended their lead early in the third quarter, as Crist tossed a five-yard touchdown pass to T.J. Jones.

The Boilermakers, though, made things interesting early in the fourth quarter. After the defense came up with a safety, Purdue took the ensuing possession 55 yards, capping the seven-play drive with a 23-yard touchdown run by Marve on a fourth-and-one situation.

The Irish, however, would respond with a 37-yard field goal by Ruffer that capped a 10-play, 39-yard drive with four-plus minutes to go.

Notre Dame is now 54-26-2 all-time versus Purdue, including wins in five of the last six meetings.
