Purdue Basketball's 2025-2026 Big Ten schedule draw released

Months before the schedule comes out, Purdue knows what its conference path will look like, as the Big Ten home-and-away draws were released on Tuesday.

The Boilermakers’ double-play matchups will be Indiana (as always), plus Iowa and Wisconsin.

Purdue’s lone meeting with presumed fellow Big Ten contenders Illinois, Michigan and Michigan State will be played in West Lafayette, and as was already known, its West Coast trip will be made to UCLA and USC while Washington and Oregon will make their first visits to Mackey Arena as league members.

The Boilermakers are bound to be a top-five team nationally in the preseason, projected by ESPN to be the No. 1 overall seed to the NCAA Tournament.
