Big Ten Football: Week 11 Power Rankings

11. Purdue

Week 11 result – 45-17 loss to Northwestern

Purdue added yet another embarrassing loss to their 2016 resume. This team was never supposed to win the Big Ten title, but is respectfully known as an underdog that can beat a top team at any time.

That isn’t the case this season. The Boilermakers have fallen off and can chalk this season up as a bust. It isn’t going to take a lot to work their way back to the underdog role, but they need to do it quick before they fall even further off.

This team’s future is going to come down to the offseason. They need to recruit some notable players to their future rosters in order to maintain this respectable title. No one really knows what happened to Purdue this season, but I’m sure it was just a fluke year for the Boilermakers.
