With that loss, they’re now 4-3 in B1G play and a game behind the Wisconsin Badgers and Iowa Hawkeyes, who are both 5-2.

Luckily for Purdue though, it’s favored by a good margin to win against Northwestern. The Boilermakers have an 82.4% chance to beat the Wildcats, per ESPN’s FPI. 

This shouldn’t be too surprising considering Northwestern’s struggles this season. It comes into this contest at 3-7 and has lost 4 straight games. Its last win came against Rutgers on Oct. 16, 21-7.

If Northwestern can play spoiler here, it will make it even more of a 2-team race down the stretch for who gets to Indianapolis.

Kickoff will be at Noon ET.
