(Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City, Iowa - KIWA Staff Photo)Iowa City, Iowa (RI) — The 15th-ranked Iowa Hawkeyes take a 7-2 record into Saturday night’s home game against Purdue.
The challenge for Iowa’s defense will be slowing down Purdue quarterback Ryan Browne, who ranks third in the Big Ten in total offense. Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz says experience has helped Browne elevate his game.
Purdue enters the contest with a 3-6 record, but Ferentz believes the Boilermakers are better than their record indicates.
Ferentz says Purdue has turned in several impressive performances this season.
The Hawkeyes are looking to extend their winning streak to three games after victories over Wisconsin and Northwestern. A win would also keep Iowa’s College Football Playoff hopes alive as the regular season enters its final stretch.
