Purdue will have been in LA all week for the Jan 20 game, while we have a Jan 17th road game at Ohio St (Purdue is playing at SC on the 17th).

It was Michigan last year where we faced this, and it was the only time we got blown out at home.

We also faced against Minnesota, and we barely escaped an opponent we should have crushed (we had the road win at Indiana while they were playing at SC).
