What an Awful Season for Purdue
It’s been an awful season for Purdue and they currently have only one win so far this season. In the last game against Oregon, Purdue scored a grand total of zero points and that led to the blowout defeat. Ryan Bowne was under center and he completed 9 of his 19 passes for 93 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception. Reggie Love III did have a strong game on the ground finishing with 11 carries for 93 yards. Purdue overall this season is averaging 20.3 points while their defense is giving up 38.4 points per game. The offense is ranked 119th in the league while the defense is ranked 130th.Â
Northwestern Was Awful in the Last Game
Northwestern in the last game faced off against Iowa in the last game and it was ugly. Northwestern scored only 14 points while the defense gave up 40 points, and that led to the 26-point defeat. Jack Lausch was under center and he completed 10 of his 19 passes for 62 yards, zero touchdowns, and two interceptions. The defense allowed Kaleb Johnson to run wild, and they are going to need the defense to be better here.
Northwestern is averaging 18.4 points while their defense is giving up 22.1 points per game. The offense for this team hasn’t been great, but against a bad defense, this is a game where they could find success.Â
Why Northwestern Will Beat Purdue

- The favorite has won 10 of Purdue’s last 11 games.

Northwestern vs Purdue Prediction
Northwestern is going to get the job done here. Northwestern hasn’t been great this season, but Purdue has been even worse. I trust the quarterback situation a little more for Northwestern and Purdue’s offense is going to really struggle here. Purdue is going to really struggle to get to even six points and that is going to be the difference here as Northwestern is going to come out on top. Back Northwestern against the spread here.Â
