After a near disastrous Bahamas trip that cost Purdue its top 25 ranking the Boilermakers return home for our annual Big Ten-ACC Challenge tilt. This year we are officially running it back. Last season Purdue played in Louisville and lost in one of its worst games of the season. It was one of three games against eventual NCAA Tournament teams in the non-conference and Purdue went 1-2, thus contributing to why Purdue was a 4 seed in March.
But what about this year? Well, it could be argued that Purdue has already played three NCAA Tournament teams in Marquette, Tennessee, and Arizona.
