Purdue at Texas: Preview, Odds, & How to Watch

The gauntlet continues.

We knew this stretch was going to be rough. Six games in seven against either ranked or high major opponents with only two games at Mackey Arena. Going 6-0 against Virginia Tech, Florida State, Michigan, Maryland, Texas, and Notre Dame would be ambitious for any team in college basketball. I felt 4-2 would be excellent, especially with as well as Michigan has been playing. A 3-3 mark would still be pretty good.

As it turns out, we faded late against Virginia Tech, but could have won. Against Florida State we probably should have won, but turnovers and a couple of missed free throws were critical.
