Non-Conference Opponents Update: February 10

We’re now about a month out from Selection Sunday. The Big Ten Tournament starts exactly one month from today, and now we know Purdue can (hopefully) set up a month-long residence in Indianapolis for it and the NCAAs. I say that because the Boilers have only played one game since the last update, but it was an important one. Northwestern currently falls on tier 3 of the NET rankings, and with the 75-70 home win we avoided the always dreaded “bad loss”. Now, with seven regular season games to go (remember: Nebraska is still going to attempt to make up the lost game in Mackey) Purdue only has two more chances for a “bad loss”.
