It’s so good. Purdue won a game last week, they could win another game today that’s two in a row, if they win next week that’s called a winning streak, and believe it or not Purdue has done it before. Here’s their chance to build some momentum. A night game under the lights in Ross-Ade Stadium. What more could you want?
