Purdue at Michigan State Preview

A lot of Purdue fans are predicting death by Sparty in this one, but even in Purdue's disappointing 1-3 start we have seen some margin of improvement. Instead of getting blown out by superior teams Purdue has at least improved to the point where it beats itself again. Yeah, that is a small measure of progress, but going from "We're getting drilled by 30 by everyone" to "We lost, but it was due to mental mistakes," is improvement. And that's exactly what has happened. A pair of pick sixes resulted in the loss at Marshall, and a slew of penalties and other mistakes led to a loss to Bowling Green.
