It’s good to be back in Mackey Arena, as Purdue takes on the Gamecocks of Jacksonville State tonight. it is part two of our watching doubleheader at football PULLED OF THAT AMAZING UPSET!!!! or succumbed to yet another defeat to Wisconsin (Yes, I am scheduling this before the football game). Regardless, Purdue fans should be able to enjoy one win today because this is a non-power 5 opponent in Mackey. I think we have this and hopefully it is a relatively easy one.
