Northwestern allowed 3.2 sacks per game last year, that's a bottom-10 national stat. Purdue's offensive line, for all its issues, was still a full sack per game better. Your QB room is worrying about survival, ours is focused on attacking. Penn State's defense is elite, but we hung 31 on them last season because our scheme creates quick reads. The Wildcats' offensive struggles are a talent issue, NOT just a schematic one. You're right that defenses are loading up, but Purdue's air raid is built to counteract pressure with tempo and spacing.
