Purdue hasn't reached the end zone often this season, but that's probably a good thing, because according to the school's groundskeeper, there's a massive sinkhole in it.

The groundskeeping crew tweeted out photos of the sinkhole, and yeah.... that's pretty bad.
It's also a wonderful metaphor for Purdue's football program.
The grounds crew will have some time to fix the problem — the cause of which seems to be addressed — Purdue's next home game at Ross–Ade Stadium is Oct. 15 against Iowa.
