Heading to Iowa City is never an easy road trip. Heading to face an Iowa team that is ranked No. 2 is especially daunting because Purdue has not beaten a top 5 team away from Ross-Ade Stadium since 1974. The Hawkeyes boast one of the best defenses in the country and cause an enormous amount of havoc with turnovers. They have forced 11 in the last two games alone.
I tend to think Purdue has a better shot than most, however.
1. Their offense is not good. If you can get a lead and not turn the ball over can they come back?
