WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. -- Tommy Tuberville was a 3-year-old the last time Cincinnati won a road game against a Big Ten Conference opponent, defeating Indiana in 1957 in Bloomington.Tuberville, who will celebrate his 62nd birthday on Sept. 18, got an early present Saturday when the Bearcats dominated Purdue, 38-20 in Ross-Ade Stadium.Quarterback Hayden Moore passed for three touchdowns and ran for two more, and linebacker Mike Tyson intercepted Purdues David Blough three times, laying the foundation for a relatively easy victory.With five turnovers, youre going to win most of your games, Tuberville said. I dont care if you are playing on the moon. That was a good game for us. I thought we handled it well.Purdue (1-1) was trying to start the season 2-0 for the first time since 2007, but Blough was intercepted five times, and J.D. Dellinger missed a 28-yard field goal. Three interceptions of Blough set up Cincinnati touchdowns.I was just doing my job, Tyson said of his three interceptions. If it wasnt for our defensive front playing so well, I wouldnt have gotten any interceptions.Blough threw a 19-yard touchdown pass to Domonique Young and a 36-yarder to DeAngelo Yancey, and Richie Worship ran 4 yards for another Purdue score. Blough passed for 401 yards.The Bearcats ability to successfully convert on third down was at the core of their offensive dominance. Cincinnati converted 12 of its first 14 third-down situations.Moore threw touchdown passes of 5 and 28 yards to Nate Cole and 20 yards to D.J. Dowdy and ran 9 and 23 yards for scores. His 23-yard TD run with 2:19 iced the outcome.We got a little conservative in the fourth quarter, but it was a big win for us, Tuberville said.Moore completed 19 of 32 passes for 250 yards and ran eight times for 58 yards.Cincinnati drove 85, 80, 75, 32 and 49 yards for touchdowns and had another 13-play, 79-yard drive that produced a 26-yard Andrew Gantz field goal in the third quarter that extended the lead to 24-7.Safety Tyrell Gilberts fourth-quarter interception of Blough set up the 28-yard touchdown pass to Cole, pushing the Cincinnati lead to 31-7 with 14:10 to play.When you cant get off the field on third down, and then you have too many turnovers, youre not going to win, said Purdue coach Darrell Hazell, now 7-31 in his fourth season with the Boilermakers with four victories against FCS opponents.TAKEAWAYS:CINCINNATI: Tyson intercepted Blough three times, once in the end zone, and Gilbert made a key pick to set up a score, allowing the Bearcats to win the turnover battle. In its season-opening victory against Tennessee-Martin, Cincinnati turned the ball over three times. Coupled with Moores solid day, the Bearcats won each side of the ball.PURDUE: The Boilermakers defense allowed 7.6 yards each time Cincinnati snapped the ball in the first half, when the Bearcats were 9 of 11 on third-down conversions. Coupled with the five interceptions of Blough, Purdue mistakes denied the Boilermakers a chance of rallying from what was once a 24-point deficit.KEY NUMBERSBloughs five interceptions are the most by a Purdue quarterback since Ohio State intercepted Scott Hoffman five times in the Buckeyes 1990 victory against the Boilermakers. Former Super Bowl winning quarterback Bob Griese was intercepted five times by Illinois in a 1966 game that Purdue actually rallied to win, 25-21.INJURIESPURDUE: The Boilermakers played without three starters -- defensive end Austin Larkin (ankle), cornerback DaWan Hunte (ankle) and linebacker Jimmy Herman (hamstring) and then lost starting running back Markell Jones in the third quarter with a sprained shoulder.UP NEXT:CINCINNATI: The Bearcats return home to play No. 6 Houston on Thursday night, hoping to improve to 3-0 and spring a major upset.We were not looking ahead to Houston, but its hard not to because we hear so much about them, Bearcats running back Tion Green said.PURDUE: The Boilermakers have a bye on Sept. 17 and will play Nevada on Sept. 24 in West Lafayette. It will be the first meeting between the schools. Joe Flacco Hoodie . But the quarterback hopes to stay involved in football after officially calling it quits Tuesday.

Wright currently sits in top spot as the only undefeated player in the 2016 Premier League season as he rolls into Exeter, where he will play world No 1 Van Gerwen. You can watch it live on Thursday at 7pm on Sky Sports 1 HD.Sky Sports expert Mardle has been pondering the weekly fixtures... Phil Taylor v Adrian Lewis Relive the legendary 2013 Grand Slam semi-final between Adrian Lewis and Phil Taylor Because theyve played each other so many times, they know each others game. Theyll just get on with the game because they respect each other, there wont be any silly mind games.The way Taylor played last week - how he threw, how his darts went into the board, the angle of entry - I havent seen him play so well since 2013. He was magnificent. But it was only one game, I know that.But it was the way that his darts went into the board, there was no kicking over to the right because he wasnt throwing them firmly enough. He looked like the player weve watched over the past 27 years. Once Phil gets on a roll and builds up his confidence hes a tough man to do business with.Prediction: Taylor is more likely to win this game than Lewis. Hell nick it 7-5.Dave Chisnall v James Wade James Wade will need to throw better darts than this... Last week I remember saying Adrian Lewis would out-score Wade, who would have to hit all his doubles. But Wade was the scorer and Lewis was the finisher. You just dont know what youre going to get from Wade, hes such a good player. Rule him out at your peril.But theres something about Chizzy. Hes got a knack to be mediocre then hit a really big score to turn a leg around.Last week Wade had nine darts to nick a point but couldnt. That might bother him. I think Chizzy is the better scorer and Wade wont score as well as he did last week.Prediction: Im going to go for Chizzy on the basis that Wade doesnt take out many ton-pluses (which he can do).Robert Thornton v Gary Anderson Gary Anderson is getting into the swing of thinngs, Mardle thinks Playing Anderson is not the problem - Thornton just isnt playing well enough.dddddddddddd There was a point in last years Premier League Darts when Kim Huybrechts was bottom but was getting 100 averages. Thornton isnt playing like that, so youre thinking theres no hope. Obviously if hes got the same attitude as me, hes got no chance!I just dont think Thornton is playing anywhere near well enough to deal with Anderson. Hes the world champ for a reason. Thornton can be a spoiler, he can pull off a shock - he beat Michael van Gerwen in the World Grand Prix final. But that was when he was playing well, and he isnt doing that now.Prediction: I can only see one winner here. Anderson. Peter Wright v Michael van Gerwen Relive Michael van Gerwens epic 123 average last week This will be match of the night if Wright plays well. Im not convinced which darts hell use. Michael will obviously play well although he wont average 123 again - it might be higher! Even if Van Gerwen averages 103 or 104 I just cant bring myself to think that hell be beaten.Prediction: Wright is quality and hes top-of-the-table - but he wont be any more after this match.Michael Smith v Raymond van Barneveld Raymond van Barneveld produced a stunning comeback from 3-0 to beat Michael Smith in the World Championship Smith will believe he can win this game. You want the real Raymond to tow the oche because, if he plays well, he wins. Smith has looked short of composure.I know he played Van Gerwen last week who averaged 123, but Smith had a mini capitulation. People will say it wont matter but, with five legs gone, he averaged 103. Three legs later he was averaging low-90s, he completely lost the plot. That wont please him.Smiths highest average has been 93 in this Premier League. Raymonds lowest has been 93.Prediction: Youve got to go for Van Barneveld on the stats, on his belief.
