And don't miss our prediction for Northwestern vs Purdue in the Big Ten.
Northwestern In Desperate Need Of a Win
So far this season, Northwestern is 3-5 overall and just 1-4 in the Big Ten. They will need to win three of their last four games of the regular season to get to six wins and bowl eligibility. This game represents a great chance to get one of those three wins, as they take on a Purdue team that has struggled mightily this season. Northwestern is coming off of a game where they allowed 40 points to the Iowa Hawkeyes, but the Northwestern defense has been largely solid outside of that slip-up, which could give them the advantage in this one.
Purdue Still Winless In Big Ten Competition
Purdue has yet to win a Big Ten game this season, going 1-6 overall and 0-4 in the Big Ten. In their four conference games, the Boilermakers have been outscored by a combined margin of 165-65. Here, it isn't likely that Purdue will be overpowered quite so dramatically. Still, they will need to be better on both sides of the ball if they want a realistic shot at winning their first game in conference play.
Northwestern vs Purdue Betting Prediction
Our best bet for Northwestern vs Purdue on Saturday is for the Northwestern Wildcats to win and cover the spread as a slight favorite on the road. While Northwestern has had plenty of problems this season, they at least bring a stout defense to the proceedings here. Look for them to shut Purdue down more consistently than Purdue will shut them down and for the Wildcats to get a much-needed win in their chase for six victories.
