Know thy Opponent 2016: Penn State Nittany Lions

It has been awhile since Purdue and Penn State have played each other in football, but with 14 Big Ten teams that's to be expected with east crossovers. Now that there are nine conference games instead of eight it will cut down on long breaks between games with opponents, but going 3-4 years between games with the Nittany Lions will be quite common.

That might be a good thing when you consider it has been awhile since Purdue has played Penn State. History has not been kind with our Boilers against them. Purdue has only three wins against Penn State, and just one of them in Happy Valley.
