Winning in East Lansing would be a monumental victory for this Purdue team. Not only would it give us a quality road win that we were lacking from the non-conference season, it would thrust us right back into the Big Ten title race since MSU and Michigan are the last teams unbeaten in conference play.
It won’t be easy.
