Notre Dame had an obvious letdown after its big overtime win against Florida State and barely beat Toledo 32-29. The Rockets matched the Fighting Irish with 132 rushing yards and Jack Coan threw the game-winning 18-yard touchdown pass with a dislocated finger. Otherwise, it was a rough day for Coan, who was sacked six times, threw an interception that was returned for a TD and also fumbled. That doesn't bode well coming into this game as Purdue is off to a great start outscoring opponents 79-21 in its first two games against Oregon State and Connecticut. Jack Plummer completed 16 of 20 for 245 yards and four TDs against the Huskies and David Bell caught six passes for 121 yards and three scores. This is the first meeting since 2014 and Purdue is 17-5 ATS its past 22 games as an underdog overall, 19-6-2 ATS as a road dog. Also, the Boilermakers are 10-4 ATS their past 14 non-conference games. Notre Dame has not covered its last four as a home favorite and the Irish are 1-5 ATS their last six home games overall. Play Purdue.
