The Minnesota Gophers are the first opponent Purdue faces since the death of legendary Boilermakers head coach Joe Tiller last weekend. Purdue has planned a number of remembrances for Tiller at the game on Saturday. The Gophers will also honor Tiller with a cool little helmet sticker that references his famous mustache:

A ‘Stache Sticker is a cool way to go and I’m glad to see Minnesota taking a moment to honor a coach who will always be a big part of Purdue and the Big Ten’s history.
