MADISON, Wis. — Riding a four-game winning streak heading into Week 8, Purdue football will be on the road for a matchup with Wisconsin on Saturday at Camp Randall Stadium. The Boilermakers are looking to snap a 15-game losing skid to the Badgers that dates back to 2004.

A win would mark the team's first five-game winning streak since 2007 and secure bowl eligibility. It would also send Purdue to a 4-1 mark in Big Ten play for the first time since 2003.

"I mean, this is a team that's really dominated us for quite a while," Purdue coach Jeff Brohm said. "Really dominated us last year. Really good defense, strong running game, control the ball, normally don't beat themselves.

"So once again, trying to keep the game close, figure out a way to get a lead, make them do some things that they're not used to doing as much will be critical for us in order to find a way to win."
