Ryan Browne News: Picks thwart winning effort

Browne was 24-for-39 passing for 305 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions during Saturday's 33-17 loss versus USC. He also had nine rushes for four yards with one touchdown.

Were it not for three interceptions, the outcome might have been different for the Boilermakers. The potent USC offense was able to capitalize on Purdue's mistakes and came away with the win despite an excellent statistical result from Browne. Things will only get tougher for the signal-caller, as he'll face a stingy Notre Dame defense next.
