On October 6, 2012 Purdue lost to Michigan at home in a highly anticipated game 44-13 after a 3-1 start to the season. That loss dropped fourth year head coach Danny Hope to 19-23 in his career at Purdue and started a five-game losing streak that all but sealed his fate. The Boilers nearly pulled out of the tailspin with a stunning win at Ohio State, but could not stop a late tying TD drive and fell in overtime. It was a season where, because of off the field issues at Penn State and Ohio State the Boilers would have a great chance to reach the Big Ten championship game.
