This morning the Big Ten Network released its TV schedule of conference games that will be on the network this winter and the good news is that Purdue will be on it only nine times during the 18 game league schedule. That means the other games are likely to be picked up for either ESPN or CBS national coverage.
Here is the link to Schedule.0.pdf as it is now known, and here is the complete BTN broadcast schedule:
