Purdue (+2.5) vs. TCU

Another key game for the West matching the Big Ten and Big 12.

The Boilermakers rebounded nicely last week whipping Vanderbilt 42-24.  That was a must win for Purdue in its quest to make it a third-straight bowl season.

Rondale Moore was electric again carving up the Commodores with 220 yards receiving and a touchdown.

He is the best player in college football and if he continues this pace, deserves an invite to NYC in December.

We don’t know much about TCU yet because it opened with Arkansas Pine Bluff and was off last week.

The defense that can make a key stop late in the fourth will win the game.  I am going with the home team in a high-scoring game.

Purdue 45-42
