Iowa Hawkeyes vs. Purdue Boilermakers: Streaming, broadcast info for Week 6
The Iowa Hawkeyes play the Purdue Boilermakers on Saturday, Oct. 7 at 2:30 p.m. CT, and if you’re wondering how to watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.
Iowa enters this matchup with a 4-1 record overall and a 1-1 mark in Big Ten Play. Purdue sits at 2-3 overall with a 1-1 mark in the Big Ten as well. Both of these squads are coming off conference wins and are looking to climb to 2-1 early in the Big Ten West race.
Purdue features a bunch of fresh faces this year as the former Illinois defensive coordinator Ryan Walters is now the head coach and Hudson Card, a transfer from Texas, has taken over for the Boilermakers as quarterback.
Iowa will also usher in a new quarterback. With the news that Cade McNamara is missing the remainder of the year with a torn ACL, the Hawkeyes turn to Deacon Hill to take over the offense.
