Purdue stands a chance of being the champions of the “independents” in 2021, as it faces two of the seven independent FBS programs. While our third opponent is the much more famous independent, UConn is new to the game of going it alone. To learn more about the Huskies I spoke with Aman Kidwai of The UConn Blog.
T-Mill: UConn took last year off and Purdue sort of did with a weird 6 game schedule. Does having that year off feel like an SMU “Death Penalty” situation and did you lose a lot of experience with going elsewhere to play?
