Wisconsin 17- Purdue 9, Great D but No O
Any time Purdue has gone into Madison over the past decade I just assume it’s going to be a loss. Since the 2004 Purdue vs. Wisconsin game when the two programs were basically evenly matched the two teams have just gone on completely opposite trajectories. While Wisconsin has built their team around power running and having some of the best defenses out there Purdue has struggled to find any type of identity at all. Tonight those trajectories might have stopped going in opposite directions.
The Purdue defense did everything they could today to keep the game close. The Purdue offense however just didn’t do anything to help their case. The Purdue defense played incredible.
