If Michigan State takes care of business and beats Purdue on Friday night, then it could be curtains for Boilermakers head coach Ryan Walters.
College football insider Pete Nakos of On3 is reporting that Friday night’s matchup between Purdue and Michigan State is a “huge game” for Walters’ future. Walters is in his second season at Purdue and would be owed $9.5 million if he was let go after this season.
Purdue is 1-9 on the year and has lost nine straight games. The Boilermakers lone win came in the season-opener against FCS foe Indiana State.
Michigan State comes into this game as a near two-touchdown favorite over the Boilermakers. This is a massive game for the Spartans as well, with Michigan State needing to win both of its final two games to reach bowl eligibility.
