We get to play a home game! Purdue has not gotten to play on Keady Court since the Christmas Day game against Maryland. The postponement of the Nebraska game meant an extended four-game road trip, where Purdue was fortunate enough to get a split. It was the longest road trip since the 1965-66 season. That year December Purdue played at Evansville, at Valparaiso, a neutral site game against St. John’s in Los Angeles, at UCLA, another neutral site LA game against Vanderbilt, at Notre Dame, and at Northwestern.
The travel this time was not as far flung, but four straight road games during a pandemic just adds to the oddity that is current events.
