Thursday, the Big Ten announced this season’s conference men’s schedule, i.e. the Boilermakers’ path to what they hope will be another league title.
The Boilermakers enter 2025-2026 thought to be one of the top teams nationally, almost certain to again be chosen as the Big Ten’s preseason favorite.
PURDUE BIG TEN SCHEDULE NOTABLES
Indiana games: Jan. 27 in Bloomington and Feb. 20 in West Lafayette.
• The December Big Ten road opener Purdue has struggled with is at Rutgers this season. Dec. 2.
• Purdue’s first California trip for Big Ten games runs Jan. 17-20, with games at USC and UCLA, respectively.
After TV demanded too quick a turnaround following last season’s West Coast trip, Purdue this year gets a full four days between Los Angeles and Illinois’ visit the following weekend.
• The final home game for perhaps the greatest senior class in Purdue history: March 7 vs. Wisconsin.
• Purdue will host Iowa State between its two December conference games, then turn right around after Minnesota visits Dec. 10 to meet Marquette three days later.
