To be honest, not a lot has changed in the last week. A rash of postponements continues to affect the season, and Purdue is on that list now as last night’s game with Michigan is on the list now. We have no idea when it will be made up, but it will undoubtedly be crammed somewhere later in the season. At least Big Ten leader Michigan State is in the same boat.
Purdue continues to be helped by its overall profile. Remember: As ugly as Purdue has looked in recent games, the overall profile is still strong. In fact, virtually every non-conference opponent moved up slightly this week.
