The SportsLine Projection Model has revealed its Purdue Boilermakers vs. USC Trojans matchup Saturday on CBS and Paramount+

After a 33-17 loss to USC, Purdue is now 2-1 on the season. How did the team's first loss impact the Boilermakers in ESPN's Football Power Index (FPI) rankings?

USC was leading 30-17 when it began its penultimate drive at its own 35-yard line with five minutes and 37 seconds left in the game. Smart clock management by the coaching staff allowed the Trojans to burn 4:24 off the clock and position kicker Ryon Sayeri for a 19-yard field goal.

Ross-Ade Stadium paused at halftime Saturday to salute one of its own. Former Purdue quarterback and longtime broadcaster Gary Danielson was honored during the Boilermakers' Big Ten matchup with USC in a return to West Lafayette as the program celebrated both his playing career and his distinguished run in the CBS Sports broadcast booth.

There were highs and lows for the Boilermakers, both with quarterback Ryan Browne, the defense and elsewhere. Boilers show potential if details get cleaned up.
