Northwestern v. Purdue (Game Thread)

It wasn’t pretty. Go Gophers!

Who do we need to win this Michigan game?

Purdue needs Iowa to lose.....an Illinois win makes it tougher for Iowa with the tiebreakers but doesn't change Purdue's chances much from what I understand. Assuming Purdue wins next week (which is NO guarantee), Purdue wins a two-way tie with Illinois and a three-way tie with Illinois/Minnesota. Iowa wins a two-way tie with Purdue, and Illinois would win a three-way tie with Iowa/Purdue.

All moot now as Michigan kicks a FG with 9 seconds left to go up 19-17. Harbaugh eschewed the 4th down attempt earlier to kick a FG when down four. Looks like a great move now.

If Iowa wins out, they'd be West Division representative in Big Ten Championship Game.
 
It was cold out there today. I hope it is a bit warmer and less windy next Saturday. Go Minny. Go Purdue.
