Jumbo Heroes (4-5):
Purdue’s offense has really put things together as the season has progressed. Minnesota just fired their defensive coordinator. In Minnesota’s last game they gave up 430 yards rushing to Illinois to go along with 216 passing yards. They gave up 646 yards...to ILLINOIS...coached by Santa Lovie. That’s not great at all. Now they’re trying to fix things with a new defensive coordinator the week before playing against Jeff Brohm offensive genius? I don’t think that’s going to go well for them.
Plus, Purdue needs to win just one more game in order to be bowl eligible for the second season in a row.
