  "account": "Champaign, IL — Purdue football takes on Illinois today in a game that holds significance for several storylines. In their last match at Champaign, Purdue's quarterback Ryan Browne made his first start in a double-overtime loss. Moreover, just six days ago, the Fighting Illini fired their first-year defensive coordinator Bobby Hauck, which has fans wondering if Purdue's first-year coordinator Kevin Kane will follow suit.\n\nHowever, there are deeper issues at play. Saturday's game presents Purdue with an opportunity to address some of these ongoing concerns. Purdue's offense has been impressive with its passing attack, and the Boilermakers are hoping to end a 19-game losing streak against Big Ten opponents, and a 23-game losing streak against Power Five opponents and Notre Dame.\n\nFor live updates, box scores, player stats, and highlights, stay tuned below. Tune in to Purdue vs. Illinois on Fubo at 4:15 p.m. ET, today, October 3, at Gies Memorial Stadium in Champaign, Illinois. This article is brought to you by the Indianapolis Star.",
