Purdue is gearing up for a big showdown with Minnesota this week. It’s homecoming, so it’s easy to see why the Boilermakers expect a good crowd.

With less than 24 hours to go until kickoff, they put out a hype video to get ready for the big game.

The Boilermakers are coming off a defensive battle against Illinois in which they only scored 1 touchdown en route to a 13-9 victory. But despite the win, it’s unclear who’ll start for Jeff Brohm’s group this week. Jack Plummer started the game against Illinois, but Aidan O’Connell came off the bench and wound up throwing the game’s only touchdown.

Brohm said QB1 will be a game-time decision, so we won’t know who’ll be starting under center until Saturday morning. We do know that Purdue has a chance to improve to 2-0 in B1G play in front of the homecoming crowd.

Kickoff is set for noon ET on the B1G Network.
