Notre Dame Looks to Bounce Back From Embarrassment

Notre Dame was a heavy favorite in last week's game against the Northern Illinois Huskies at Notre Dame Stadium. But the Fighting Irish lost that game outright, playing some putrid offensive football and getting beat on a late field goal by their opponents from the MAC. Now at 1-1 on the season, the Irish will look to bounce back from last week's embarrassing loss as they hit the road to face the Purdue Boilermakers.

If the Irish want to win this Notre Dame vs Purdue matchup, they will need to be better on the offensive side of the ball than they have been through two weeks. The Fighting Irish have 18.5 points per game so far, scoring just 23 points even in their win over Texas A&M to open their season. If things don't change offensively for Notre Dame starting this week, they could be out of the College Football Playoff discussion before the end of September.

Purdue Looks to Prolong Notre Dame's Misery

The Purdue Boilermakers enter this weekend's action with a 1-0 record. They beat FCS Indiana State in their first game of the season back on August 31. After a Week 2 bye week last week, the Boilermakers are back at it, looking to hand the Fighting Irish a second straight loss in this all-Indiana battle in college football.

It is hard to get a good read on Purdue right now after their lone game of the season came against an FCS school that was so clearly overmatched. But Hudson Card did throw four touchdown passes in that game for the Boilermakers, which is an encouraging sign going into this Notre Dame vs Purdue showdown.

Notre Dame vs Purdue Best Bet

We will take the points with Purdue as a home underdog in this Notre Dame vs Purdue contest in college football. The Boilermakers should be able to do enough defensively to continue to disrupt Riley Leonard and the sputtering Irish offense. While Purdue may not win outright, we can't rule that out either, while they should be able to cover the spread at home.
