Ohio State is ready to hit the road to face Purdue in the next Big Ten conference game. It’s the next step on a journey the Buckeyes hope end in a trip to Indianapolis and beyond.
But the Boilermakers aren’t called the Spoilermakers for no reason. Purdue has beaten Ohio State several times through the years when least expected, not the least of which occurred the last time the Scarlet and Gray traveled to West Lafayette in 2018.
It’s something that new Purdue head coach Ryan Walters is embracing. He knows the history and will try to have his team shock the world again on Saturday. Before that though, he met with the local media to discuss the matchup and what he sees from Ohio State.
He was very complimentary of OSU and the job that Ryan Day has done with the program but also was embracing the challenge of playing one of the best teams in the country as an opportunity.
You can catch all of his comments by watching the below video of the press conference thanks to the PurdueSports YouTube channel.
Purdue will do the unthinkable on Saturday at noon when it kicks things off against Ohio State. We’ll be here leading up to the game, during the action, and after with more content as we root for the Buckeyes to show growth and keep things going. Stay with us and check back often.
