Wild Card: Purdue at Missouri (4:00 pm – SEC Network)

On paper, this game may not be all that exciting but it does have the potential to be a high-scoring affair. The Boilermakers are under the tutelage of head coach Jeff Brohm now and through two games, they look like a vastly improved squad that has given hope to those in West Lafayette. Missouri is coming off their own tough season but has shown some promise throughout the first two games.

Missouri’s offense should be able to score on Purdue while the Boilermakers should put up some big numbers on their own part. It’s hard to tell how good each team truly is and with two defenses that are still coming together, this could easily be a shootout as the point total is already set at 76.
