Predictions
Scott- Purdue couldn’t have gotten any more lucky by opening up Big Ten play against the Minnesota Golden Gophers. It’s a “new season” for Purdue and they can start off on a good note. Marques Gray could be out for the Gophers as well as their two starting offensive tackles. The back-ups are all freshman. Would be perfect opportunity for our pass rush to show up, specifically the defensive ends. I can’t see Purdue losing this game. Purdue 28-Minnesota 14
Zach-Let’s put it this way: If Purdue loses this game, Danny Hope needs to do the honorable thing and just disappear into the sunset. Seriously. Minnesota is a very bad team and Hope can’t lose to Jerry Kill twice in three years. Purdue 24-Minnesota 10
