For the first time in awhile, we're actually feeling positive about Purdue football following a loss where the head coach wasn't fired after the game. It's a weird feeling, and I'm not to sure how to handle it yet. I want to say Purdue will beat Penn State, but I know it's still Purdue and Penn State could be on the rise after upsetting #2 Ohio State. I think we would all love to see Penn State take a step back and have them trip into Ross-Ade, but I'm still not getting my hopes up.

Give me a reason to believe, Purdue!
