The Oakland Golden Grizzlies face another monumental challenge Friday as they travel to West Lafayette to take on the Purdue Boilermakers, the nation’s top-ranked team. Oakland (0–1) opened its season Monday against No. 7 Michigan, falling 121–78 but still showing glimpses of promise for head coach Greg Kampe. Now, the mid-major program dives deeper into its brutal nonconference schedule, which also includes a trip to No. 2 Houston next week.

Their explosive offense and physical defense have propelled them into the national spotlight — but now the challenge is maintaining focus against a struggling opponent. Penn State (3–5, 0–5 Big Ten) finds itself reeling after a turbulent season that included the firing of head coach James Franklin and
