Kickoff: 3:30 p.m. ET Television: CBS Radio: Notre Dame IMG affiliates Series facts: Notre Dame leads the all-time series 59-26-2, which includes two vacated vic- tories. The Irish won the last meeting in South Bend, 27-13, in 2021. Head coaches: Purdue: Ryan Walters (5-8, sec- ond season); Notre Dame — Marcus Freeman (20-9, third season). Noting Purdue: The Boilermakers were one of two teams to have four opponents ranked in the top 10 of the preseason Associated Press Top 25 on its schedule, with Notre Dame obviously be- ing one of those … Despite defense not being the program's calling card — Purdue ranked 73rd in the FBS in yards allowed per play last season … The Boilermakers registered 35 sacks as a team in 2023, the third most in program history and most since 2004; for reference, Notre Dame had 31 sacks last season … Purdue has had four All- Americans in the last three seasons, the most for the program in a three-year stretch since 1967-69, but the only one of those still suiting up for the Boilermakers is defensive back Dillon Thieneman … Purdue only has 1 turnover in its last three home games dating back to 2023, and the Boilermakers' offense has racked up 1,640 yards of offense in that span. Todd D. Burlage: Notre Dame 41, Purdue 13 With an early first bye week coming Sept. 7, the only Purdue sample we have so far this season comes from its 49-0 rout at home over FCS Indiana State Aug. 31. Led by sturdy 6-foot-3, 210-pound senior quarterback Hudson Card, the Boilers piled up 248 rushing yards and 335 passing yards in the wire-to-wire tune-up. Card went 24-of-25 passing for 273 yards with 4 touchdowns and 0 intercep- tions in the season opener. Can Card replicate that kind of performance against arguably the best pass defense in country? No chance. An old-school in-state rivalry that dates back to 1896 and includes 85 games resumes this weekend with Notre Dame rolling to its fourth straight win at Ross-Ade Stadium. Steve Downey: Notre Dame 31, Purdue 7 If it feels like it has been a long time since the Boilermakers beat the Fighting Irish, that's because it has been. Purdue hasn't taken down Notre Dame on the gridiron since a 33-19 win at West Lafayette in 2007. Since then, the Irish have won eight straight by an average of 12 points. The Boilermakers were impressive in their season-opening 49-0 win over Indi- ana State, racking up nearly 600 yards of total offense. However, this Notre Dame defense is a much different animal despite the subpar performance against Northern Illinois in Week 2. After suffering the indignity of losing to a four-touch- down underdog, you have to believe the Irish will play with a lot more gusto in this one in an effort to erase that bad taste. The Irish defense will be better and the offense should be able to find success against a Purdue unit that ranked last in the Big Ten in scoring defense (30.4 points allowed per game) last year. Kyle Kelly: Notre Dame 27, Purdue 16 When we published our Football Preview, I picked the Purdue game as the one that could put Notre Dame on "Upset Alert." But after seeing Marcus Freeman get arguably the biggest win of his coaching career on the road at Texas A&M, I like the Irish to make it out of West Lafayette unscathed. Give me the Irish in a closer game then most might expect. Tyler Horka: Notre Dame 41, Purdue 17 Graham Harrell is a gifted offensive mind. Being in his second season coach- ing quarterback Hudson Card, a veteran with three years of experience at Texas prior to getting to Purdue, will be good for a couple touchdowns and a field goal at home. That feels like a lot against a defense as talented as that of Notre Dame, but the Fighting Irish's own offense will do enough to make anything the Boilermakers do offensively feel like a footnote. Purdue is set to have a much better season than the 4-8 campaign Ryan Wal- ters orchestrated in his first season at the helm there. But this is Notre Dame, a team that has historically had few problems with Purdue in a rivalry with extensive history. The Irish have not lost to the Boilermakers since 2007 and that streak will not snap in West Lafayette this week. Mike Singer: Notre Dame 38, Purdue 21 This will be a Super Bowl for the Boilermakers, and I really expect them to get up for this game and make it interesting for a bit, but the Fighting Irish will pull away and will win fairly comfortably. Notre Dame is just too good this season and will win by three scores. Jack Soble: Notre Dame 45, Purdue 10 This game is on the road, but I don't see Purdue having an advantage in any facet. The Boilermakers have a couple excellent defensive players in Kydran Jenkins and Dillon Thieneman — the latter might be the best defensive back on Notre Dame's schedule — but they can't stop the Irish by themselves. Notre Dame will roll, and a national audience will start to realize just how good this defense is. 2024 NOTRE DAME SCHEDULE Date Opponent (TV) Result/Time (ET) Aug. 31 at Texas A&M W, 23-13 Sept. 7 Northern Illinois L, 16-14 Sept. 14 at Purdue (CBS) 3:30 p.m. Sept. 21 Miami (Ohio) (NBC) 3:30 p.m. Sept. 28 Louisville (Peacock) 3:30 p.m. Oct. 12 Stanford (NBC) 3:30 p.m. Oct. 19 vs. Georgia Tech# TBA Oct. 26 vs. Navy^ (ABC/ESPN) 12 p.m. Nov. 9 Florida State (NBC) 7:30 p.m. Nov. 16 Virginia (NBC) 3:30 p.m. Nov. 23 vs. Army* (NBC) 7 p.m. Nov. 30 at USC TBA # at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta; ^ at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J.; * Shamrock Series at Yankee Stadium in The Bronx, N.Y. ; Games on NBC are also televised by Peacock 2024 PURDUE SCHEDULE Date Opponent (TV) Result/Time (ET) Aug. 31 Indiana State W, 49-0 Sept. 14 Notre Dame (CBS) 3:30 p.m. Sept. 21 at Oregon State (CW) 8:30 p.m. Sept. 28 Nebraska 12 p.m. Oct. 5 at Wisconsin TBA Oct. 12 at Illinois TBA Oct. 18 Oregon (FOX) 8 p.m. Nov. 2 Northwestern TBA Nov. 9 at Ohio State TBA Nov. 16 Penn State TBA Nov. 22 at Michigan State (FOX) 8 p.m. Nov. 30 at Indiana TBA Staff Predictions FOLLOW US!
