Purdue head coach Ryan Walters knows an angry Notre Dame football team can be a scary one.
Whatever that was Saturday by Notre Dame when it was upset at home by Northern Illinois certainly wasn't its best shot.No discredit to Northern Illinois, but it was truly a horrendous showing by a Fighting Irish team that now looks to start to pick up the pieces with a trip to Purdue this weekend. Waiting there will be a Purdue team that fully expects to see a different looking Notre Dame squad than what showed up this past Saturday.
"We're going to air on the side of thinking they're going to be an angry football team," said Walters, "I know Coach Freeman will have those guys fired up and ready to play and we're fully expecting to get their best shot." Walters' father was a quarterback at Colorado in the late 1980's, when the Buffaloes met Notre Dame in consecutive Orange Bowl games that helped decide national championships in both years. Walters also spoke about remembering the Rocket Ismail days and what it means to host a nationally ranked Notre Dame team this week.
