Week Twelve: Purdue

NOV 30 (SAT) TBA
WEST LAFAYETTE, IND.

It’s the Old Oaken Bucket showdown once again and once again it will be a hard fought game that could have bowl implications for both teams.

Purdue is coming off of a great season but did lose quarterback David Blough to graduation and have some question marks under center.

The Hoosiers look to end a two game losing streak in the matchup after winning the four previous meetings.

In a matchup that has seen four of the last six games resulting in a final score differential of less than 10 points, I expect the same to happen in 2019.

The Hoosiers rebound nicely after their four game losing streak and reach seven wins for the first time since 2007.

Prediction: Indiana 23, Purdue 13
