Non-Conference Opponents’ Update: February 17

Just one more.

It was a bit dicey at times last night, but Purdue secured its ninth Big Ten win of the season and clinched, at absolute worst, a .500 overall record before Selection Sunday. The 14-14 record would require Purdue losing every remaining game (including a hypothetical rescheduled Nebraska game) as well as the Big Ten Tournament opener. That is probably the only way the Boilers would miss the NCAA Tournament at this point.

Joe Lunardi’s latest bracketology had Purdue comfortably in as a 6 seed. That is where Purdue is on the Bracket Matrix site as well, and the Boilers are in the field on all 106 brackets.
