The Gopher football team will join Purdue on Saturday to honor former Boilermaker head coach Joe Tiller who passed away last week. The team will wear a special decal during the game.

Tiller served as the Boilermakers' head football coach from 1997 to 2008. The winningest coach in school history, he posted an 87-62 record, including 53-43 in Big Ten Conference games. Tiller led Purdue to 10 bowl games, including the 2001 Rose Bowl.
