What to Know

The Purdue Boilermakers are 0-6 against the Wisconsin Badgers since October of 2015, but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit Saturday. The Boilermakers and Wisconsin will face off in a Big Ten battle at 3:30 p.m. ET at Camp Randall Stadium. Purdue will be strutting in after a win while the Badgers will be stumbling in from a loss.

Purdue didn't have too much breathing room in their game with the Nebraska Cornhuskers last week, but they still walked away with a 43-37 victory. Among those leading the charge for Purdue was RB Devin Mockobee, who rushed for one TD and 178 yards on 30 carries.

Special teams collected 13 points for Purdue. K Mitchell Fineran delivered a perfect 3-for-3 game.

Meanwhile, the Badgers fought the good fight in their overtime contest against the Michigan State Spartans last week but wound up with a less-than-desirable result, falling 34-28. Wisconsin didn't live up to their potential and found themselves falling short of the 7-point advantage oddsmakers thought they had coming into the game. RB Braelon Allen put forth a good effort for the losing side as he rushed for two TDs and 123 yards on 29 carries.

The Boilermakers' victory brought them up to 5-2 while Wisconsin's defeat pulled them down to 3-4. Two defensive stats to keep an eye on: Purdue enters the matchup having picked the ball off ten times, good for ninth in the nation. But the Badgers are even better: they enter the game having picked the ball off 11 times, good for third in the nation. We'll see if that edge gives Wisconsin a route to victory.
