Series History:
It has been a one-sided affair between Purdue and Wisconsin over the years, particularly since Joe Tiller's last victory over the Badgers in 2003. The Boilermakers trail Wisconsin 29-53-8 all-time, which includes a current 17-game losing streak. Purdue is just 13-29-5 in Madison during that time as well. Ryan Walters will have the opportunity to do something the three head coaches before him couldn't accomplish on Saturday afternoon.

As of Thursday night, Purdue is a 13.5-point underdog (+385 moneyline) and the over/under is 44.5 points, via FanDuel Sportsbook.
