A sneak peak of ABC57's Kickoff show ahead of Purdue

SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- The number 24 fighting Irish will be hosting Purdue on Saturday at 3:30 p.m.

The last meeting was a statement game for Notre Dame, rolling to their largest ever win over Purdue 66 to 7.

The Irish also carry a seven-game winning streak against the Boilermakers into this one but this year, the situation is different. 

With a current record of 0 and 2, Notre Dame would need ten straight wins to keep playoff hopes alive. 

One bright spot-on offense has been wide receiver Malachi Fields. Fields hauled in over 125 yards against Texas A&M last weekend. 

Freeman said you can expect to see a lot more from Fields this season. 

The question this Saturday, can the Irish finally balance out both the offense and defense?
