Latest Preview (Week Recent)

Strong rushing attack with Mockobee leading the way

Devin Mockobee rushed for 126 yards and two touchdowns, including his first multi-score game of his career. Coach Barry Odom emphasized they need to be a running team, and Mockobee's performance in the Wildcat formation shows Purdue has found a reliable ground game that will be crucial against tougher opponents like USC next week.

Defensive improvement after allowing early scores

While Purdue allowed 14 first-quarter points to an FCS opponent, the defense locked down afterward, limiting Southern Illinois to just a field goal over the final three quarters. The unit generated three sacks and seven tackles for loss, showing they can adjust and dominate after early struggles.

Historic coaching start sets positive momentum

Coach Barry Odom became the first Purdue coach to start 2-0 since 1916, doubling last season's win total already. This early success provides crucial confidence and momentum heading into a major test against USC, showing the program's dramatic turnaround from last year's 1-11 disaster.

Concerning early vulnerability against inferior competition

Purdue trailed an FCS opponent 14-7 in the first quarter, marking just the second time in school history they've trailed an FCS team. This slow start against a 22.5-point underdog raises questions about their readiness for Power 5 competition like USC next week.

Balanced offensive attack with multiple weapons

Ryan Browne threw two touchdown passes to different receivers (Armad Branch and Nitro Tuttle), showing Purdue has multiple offensive threats. The combination of Browne's passing and Mockobee's rushing gives them versatility that will be tested against USC's likely superior defense.
