No one wanted to win this. Absolute coaching malpractice from Kevin Kane. I think Washington punted once. Not to mention absolutely zero capitalization on FIVE Washington turnovers. 

I guess Purdue just wanted to lose more.

Kevin was awful as always, but was the offense that much better? We did essentially nothing with their 5 turnovers and every other drive. Given the situation, 26 is pitiful

This was on the entire team, minus special teams for the most part

That was a shambles, but you can at least put a fig leaf on your shame and say "oh, well, Washington's defense". It's not much and it's a thin excuse, but the offense has looked sharp enough in other games to call this a terrible night and try to move on.

I will say that Washington is oddly talented from a roster standpoint for how shitty we are.

I am not a Fisch fan, but he has recruited well.
