Here’s how to watch Saturday’s Big Ten matchup between the Purdue Boilermakers and Northwestern Wildcats online.

The Northwestern Wildcats will try to get above .500 in Big Ten play when they visit the Purdue Boilermakers on Saturday afternoon at Ross-Ade Stadium.

A two-game losing streak has dropped Northwestern to 3-3 in conference play and 4-5 overall, which is a disappointing mark after Pat Fitzgerald’s squad won 10 games a year ago. Still, the Wildcats have been playing much better since the start of October, and gave both Ohio State and Wisconsin a test over the past two weeks.

Once again, Northwestern has been competitive in the Big Ten behind a stout defense. Defensive lineman Ifeadi Odenigbo has been a game-wrecker with 10 tackles and eight sacks, both career highs. The offense has been a struggle apart from a 54 point outburst against Michigan State, as the Wildcats rank 105th in the nation in scoring offense.

Purdue is having another difficult year at 1-5 in conference play and 3-6 overall, although it has matched its highest win total since 2012. The Boilermakers have dropped games to Nebraska, Penn State, and Minnesota since replacing fired head coach Darrell Hazell with interim Gerad Parker.

There is a little bit of talent on the offensive side of the ball, as the Boilermakers have at least been able to put up some points against a few Big Ten foes. Senior wide receiver Deangelo Yancey has emerged as an explosive playmaker with 34 receptions for 683 yards and seven touchdowns.
