Purdue is our second conference foe in 2018. Last year, new coach Jeff Brohm had the Boilermakers go 7-6 and win a bowl game. It was a wonderful improvement for the Purdue faithful, but can he keep that momentum going?
I asked Travis Miller of our SBNation Purdue site Hammer And Rails about the 2018 version of Purdue football.
You guys lose a lot of players on defense, nine of the top 12 tacklers according to Phil Steele. Will the defense struggle mightily this season and if they do, is there any chance of the offense making up for that by scoring a lot more points?
