Schedule Analysis: Purdue

Games in which Purdue will be a heavy favorite:
Eastern Kentucky
Eastern Michigan
Marshall

Games in which Purdue will be a heavy underdog:
@Notre Dame
Michigan
Wisconsin
@Ohio State
@Iowa

Favorable matchup games:
Penn State
Indiana

Unfavorable matchup games:
@Minnesota
@Illinois

Summary:
Purdue has many returning starters, especially defensively.  However, outside of defensive tackle Kawann Short none of them are special.  This is about as average as a team gets and its head coach, Danny Hope is also average, however he does have the coolest mustache in college football.   Penn State and Indiana at home are probably the only B1G games the Boilermakers will be favored to win.  This will likely be Danny Hope's last season in West Lafayette.  This is the year Indiana finishes with a better record than Purdue.

Prediction:
4-8
