PREDICTO — PURDUE VS IU PART 2: ELECTRIC BOOGALOO
Purdue kicked IU in the teeth at Mackey Arena last month. It was super fun, and national writers praised the atmosphere in West Lafayette. Unfortunately for the Good Guys, Ass(embly) Hall will probably be just as insane.
LET’S PREDICT THINGS.
General notes:
Next year IU and Purdue will only place once, at Assembly Hall. Another reminder that B10 higher-ups are the worst.

Prior to the start of Big Ten play, nobody in their right mind thought that the words “NCAA tournament team” and “Purdue” would even be near the same sentence, let alone in it.
However, with just a week and a half left in February, the Boilermakers find themselves in second place in the Big Ten and firmly involved in the bubble hunt. How did this story evolve?

Game Preview: Gophers vs. Purdue
Well here we go. A month's worth of crappy games have gone by with the Gophers managing to avoid a crippling loss, which is something you can't say for most of the rest of the Big Ten, which is good. Despite the horrific schedule the RPI sits at 69, a reasonable enough number that could easily rise into at-large territory with a good Big Ten season. To kick off the conference...

Purdue Boilermakers football: Predicting the 2014 schedule
Some would say last season was like ripping a Band-Aid off, others a bad nightmare as the Darrell Hazell era got off to a 1-11 start for the Purdue Boilermakers. That was 11 losses to FBS programs, with the lone win against FCS opponent Indiana State.
Slow clap for that, but just because it was a horror start doesn’t mean things can’t turn around quickly. Don’t believe me?...

The defense was only minimally better, ranking 113th in scoring defense and 116th in total defense.It is evident that Hazell is taking...
