    INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. — Watch this replay of Purdue quarterback Aidan O'Connell as he delivers a bullet to sixth year wide receiver Charlie Jones, also known as Chuck Sizzle, for the first down in the Big Ten Championship versus Michigan.

    In the first quarter, the score was notched at seven a piece with a minute and a half to go as O'Connell stood at the 48-yard line ready to deliver a pass to Jones open at the 25-yard line. 

    The announcers yelled out "Chuck Sizzle" while the Purdue fans amongst the Boilermakers end zone welcomed the sixth year to their side of the field with thundering cheers in the sold-out Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.

    So far, Jones leads the Boilermakers in receptions with seven for 74 yards. His facilitator O'Connell is 13-for-14 completions for 114 yards with seven minutes to go in the first half.
