Citrus Bound Boilers | Purdue Accepts Cheez-Its Citrus Bowl Bid

Following their B1G West Division Title and appearance in the B1G Championship Game, the Purdue Boilermakers have accepted a bid to the Cheez-Its Citrus Bowl in Orlando, Florida. They will face LSU from the SEC who finished 2nd in the SEC West conference with a record of 9-4 (6-2) with marquee wins over the Ole Miss Rebels and the Alabama Crimson Tide but lost the SEC Title Game to the Georgia Bulldogs 50-30. This will mark the first time these programs will meet on the gridiron and the fist time Purdue has ever played in the Citrus Bowl.
