6 The December 1989 Indiana came roaring back in the last quarter and swept 75 yards on three pass plays for a touchdown. Tuffy Brooks, brilliant sophomore fullback, took Hurling Hal Hursh's third toss over his shoulder and romped the rest of the 47 yards across the Purdue goal line. Then came the crucial try for the extra point. Eddie Herbert, who had missed only one other try this season, stubbed his toe in the soggy turf and the ball looped lazily to the left of the goal. Despite this unfortunate "break" Indiana was far from li cked- yet!
