There just might be some light at the end of the season for the Illini. At 4-3 they are just a couple wins shy of bowldom facing a Purdue team with little going right these days. Amazingly they haven’t beaten the Boliermakers since 2002 but this team is 3-1 at home and 5-2 ATS this season as they continue to surprise. Purdue is just playing out the string without their best QB, RB and WR.
