Notre Dame make the short trip to West Lafayette to take on in-state rival Purdue on Saturday afternoon
The Purdue Boilermakers welcome the Notre Dame Fighting Irish to town on Saturday afternoon as they look to stay unbeaten on the season. The Boilermakers are coming off a bye week after beating Indiana State in their first game. They had little trouble against the overmatched Sycamores as they won 49-0. Hudson Card had a great day in that game as he went 24-25 for 273 yards and four touchdowns. It was his best game as a Boilermaker and he will be looking to replicate that success on Saturday. He spread the ball around as four different receivers caught a touchdown pass. Max Klare led the way with five catches for 71 yards and at touchdown. The defense held the Sycamores to just 154 yards of offense, but they are going to have a bigger test on Saturday against the Fighting Irish.

Notre Dame will look to slow down the Boilermakers offense as it tries to bounce back from a shocking upset loss to Northern Illinois last weekend.
They struggled on offense as they managed just 14 points in the loss. They led late in the fourth quarter, but Kanon Woodill drilled a 35-yard field goal with 31 seconds left to send the Fighting Irish home with a loss.
The Fighting Irish had set themselves up with a great chance to make the playoffs after beating Texas A&M in Week 1, but now have an uphill climb after the upset loss.
It starts on Saturday against a Purdue team that is desperate for a big home win. The Fighting Irish have been good on defense so far this year, but the offense led by Riley Leonard has not found its rhythm yet.
