The women's basketball team will be starting their 18 game conference season on the road against Michigan. Conference season in the B1G is always tough, especially on the road. I have a lot of concerns for this upcoming game. Yes, Purdue has come out of the non-conference season better than most expected with a 9-2 record, and against some pretty stiff competition along with some mismatched opponents. However, that was then and this is now.
This game will show our team how far we have come this season and prove to be a real test. While the B1G women's basketball conference is not quite as tough in some ways as the volleyball conference (not as many highly ranked teams), the competition is not that far behind.
