Ahead of Saturday’s Homecoming matchup between the No. 21-ranked Minnesota Golden Gophers (4-0) and the Purdue Boilermakers (2-2), we were able to connect with Travis Miller, editor of Hammer and Rails, and he was kind enough to field our questions.
The Daily Gopher: Purdue entered the season as perhaps a dark horse candidate to win the Big Ten West. Though they’ve struggled out of the gate with one-score losses to Penn State and Syracuse and a two-point win over Florida Atlantic, their goal of winning the West is still very much in front of them, albeit with a slim margin for error.
