Purdue player hilariously pours beer all over himself in viral celebration after Iowa upset
Purdue shocked the college football world on Saturday by pulling off a 24-7 upset win at No. 2 Iowa.
The Boilermakers were 12-point underdogs but they thoroughly dominated the Hawkeyes in every facet of the game.
The result left many in the home crowd at Kinnick Stadium shocked and others angry.
Purdue’s players didn’t mind, however.
In fact, after an Iowa fan threw a beer can onto the field in disgust, Boilermakers offensive lineman Greg Long picked it up and doused his face with the contents.
