The B1G West is hanging in the balance.

On Saturday evening, when Purdue and Northwestern go head to head in West Lafayette, one team will be at the top of the B1G West standings after Week 4 and the other will be handed their first loss of the 2020 season. So, to say this weekend’s game is important is a major understatement.

Purdue enters the game with a 2-0 record, having last week’s contest against Wisconsin canceled. Northwestern is 3-0 heading into this matchup, defeating Nebraska last Saturday.

Who has the advantage? We’ll find out on Saturday.

The Boilermakers defeated the Wildcats last season in Evanston, and are looking to make it two-straight in the head-to-head series. But Northwestern is looking like a completely different team than it was a year ago, so it’s going to be a challenge for Purdue.

On Friday night, Purdue released a hype video ahead of Saturday’s pivotal B1G West matchup at Ross-Ade Stadium. Enjoy:
