Purdue, coming off a week one win, has to go to Connecticut to battle the UConn Huskies. Here are the keys to a Boiler victory. They need to have curious George Karlaftis blow his whistle at the UConn Huskies and sack the UConn QB. When the Boilers have the ball, they have to put together complete scoring drives. They must come up with six points, not just three. Jack Plummer must settle into a rhythm when the offense has the ball, and not stare down only one receiver. If Purdue does not get touchdowns, kicker Mitchell Fineran needs to get the Boilers on the board with a field goal. The Boilers have to get the momentum early, and go for the kill. The game is at 2 pm Central on Saturday 9/11 on Z96.5, WAZY. My prediction is Purdue 44, UConn 6.
