As Purdue continues to have dismal attendance and lacks a real commitment to football, the rest of the country moves forward. Just a few years ago most of the Big Ten was without permanent lights. That number eventually dwindled to four schools before this season: Purdue, Iowa, Northwestern, and Michigan State.
That number is now three thanks to OMHR:
