Each week I try to at least think about something positive and how Purdue can win a football game. The Boilers have now lost four in a row since upsetting Illinois in Champaign, but in three of those games they were the better team in the first half. Sure, the second halves have been a disaster in getting outscored 80-10, but since Darrell Hazell was fired Purdue has at least LOOKED better.
Will that make a difference in terms of actually winning a football game? We’ll see. Saturday may be the best chance remaining Purdue has at capturing an elusive win.
