About 75 minutes from kickoff for the Illini and Purdue. Illinois wearing the white jerseys and the orange pants with orange numbers. By far my favorite uniform combination. Illinois (3-4, 1-3) needs to sustain the momentum they created last Saturday. A win today is huge not only for the bowl possibility, but for the future of the program with Lovie Smith at the helm. Purdue (2-5, 1-3) has been decimated with injuries as of late, and they will be without their quarterback Elijah Sindelar and top wideout Rondale Moore. Boilers will start redshirt freshman Jack Plummer under center today. It's a soggy one here in West Lafayette, but nice and dry up in the press box. Kickoff is just after 11:00 am central time.
