There is good Purdue, that beat Neb and played NW close. And bad Purdue, which got blown out by ILL. I predict that its Bad Purdue's turn to show up.

Iowa 41, Purdue 17

I'm nervous for every game. But that nebby game wasn't good Purdue, that was 5 turnover, awful nebby with a backup qb who would currently be 4th string at Iowa.

That said, bad weather and turnovers can make any game a challenge.

Need to play sound, protect the ball, and play good defense.

I have this sinking feeling that this one will be annoying

Purdue has relied more on the pass than the run lately, especially in games where they have been competitive. With the weather on Sat., I think the pass game is out the window. I think the Iowa D will come in with a lot to prove and will make the run game very tough for Purdue, who is not really very good in that department anyway. So, I think Purdue scores, at best, 7-14 points. I see Iowa going for around their average of 31-33 with a good run game a few play action passes to tight ends mixed in. May not be a route, but I think Iowa takes care of business.

Weather keeps the score down, particularly if there is the layer of ice before the snow(don't know if we have heating coils under the surface or not).

28-7
