Notre Dame vs Purdue Predictions 2021 – 2:30 PM ET on NBC

Purdue comes into this game 2-0 with wins over Oregon State 30-21 and UCONN 49-10. In addition, they can smell blood in the water seeing a ND team that could easily be 0-2 rather than 2-0.

Purdue has a talented QB in Jack Plummer who has thrown 10 TD’s in 2 games. Look for an air assault Saturday featuring WR David Bell and capable TE’s. Plummer also has completed 70% of his passes.

Purdue’s Defensive is led By All American DE George Karlaftis who although has no sacks has pressured QB’s every time they try to pass. He will be all over ND’s OT’s.

In the end it all comes down to the play of ND’s OL and if the team is interested in playing a 4 quarter football game. So far ND not very impressive and I think it’s a 3 point win for either team.

Score Prediction: Notre Dame 30 Purdue 27
