Purdue Basketball: The Path to the Final Four

The Brackets are set.

The opening round tip-off times are set.

The path to the Final Four goes through the state of Indiana - wouldn’t it be fitting if the only team in the state to make the Big Dance, makes the final four?

It starts at 7:25 PM Friday Night.

Purdue vs North Texas at Lucas Oil Stadium. Lucky for us, we have practiced there a bit and played a game there in the Big Ten Tournament.

For Purdue, the 13 seed North Texas Mean Green will bring an admirable opponent, one who is a grit and grind type of team, with a solid 7 man rotation, the 8th man plays just over 8 minutes per game.
