What to Know
The Purdue Boilermakers and the Nebraska Cornhuskers will face off in a Big Ten clash at noon ET Dec. 5 at Ross-Ade Stadium. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W.'
Purdue came within a touchdown against the Rutgers Scarlet Knights last week, but they wound up with a 37-30 loss. Despite the loss, the Boilermakers got a solid performance out of RB Zander Horvath, who rushed for one TD and 101 yards on 19 carries.
Meanwhile, it was all tied up 13-13 at halftime, but Nebraska was not quite the Iowa Hawkeyes' equal in the second half when they met last Friday. The Cornhuskers didn't finish too far behind, but the team still lost 26-20 to the Hawkeyes. No one had a standout game offensively for Nebraska, but QB Adrian Martinez led the way with one touchdown.
This next game is expected to be close, with Purdue going off at just a 1.5-point favorite. Those sticking with them against the spread have guts, to put it politely, as the squad has let down bettors in their past four games.
The Boilermakers are now 2-3 while Nebraska sits at 1-4. Two offensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Purdue is stumbling into the contest with the seventh fewest rushing yards per game in the nation, having accrued only 98.2 on average. The Cornhuskers have experienced some struggles of their own as they are 11th worst in the nation in passing touchdowns, with only two on the season. It's possible one of these Achilles' heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
