<h2>
Michigan Wolverines at Purdue Boilermakers Overview<br />
</h2>
<p>
The Boilermakers are set-up to be one of 2016’s most improved teams. This can be chalked up to the Boilermakers being placed under the custodial care of first-year Head Coach Jeff Brohm. Brohm was the mastermind of a Western Kentucky offense that led the nation in scoring in several years of his tenure. He was also the man that helped former Hilltoppers quarterback Brandon Doughty achieve historic recognition for his on-the-field abilities. Needless to say, Purdue has bought into Brohm’s philosophies. In their most recent showing, the Boilermakers smoked the Missouri Tigers on the road in Colombia by a score of 35-3 despite closing as a touchdown underdog. The Wolverines enter off a victory against the Air Force Falcons in the Big House, when they achieved a 29-13 victory at Michigan Stadium. Michigan has yet to lose a game this season and also owns wins over Florida and Cincinnati. Purdue’s sole defeat came on Labor Day weekend when they challenged the Louisville Cardinals in a 35-28 donnybrook. The Boilermakers entered the contest as a 25.5-point home dog.
