We’re into the latter half of Missouri football’s four-game home stretch to begin the 2017 season, and it’s up against one of college football’s most-improved squads two weeks in, the Purdue Boilermakers.
After going a dreadful 9-39 overall (3-30 in B1G play) combined in the past four seasons under Darrell Hazell, former Western Kentucky head coach Jeff Brohm has taken the reigns. The results have been pleasantly surprising thus far.
The Boilermakers had a lead in the fourth quarter in Indianapolis vs. AP #16 Louisville in their season-opener, before a late Lamar Jackson touchdown pass put the Cardinals ahead up for good.
