Can Purdue continue its non-conference winning streak?
Purdue faces an opponent today that they know very well. This is the same Alabama Crimson Tide team that Purdue played in Canada last year. It’s also the same opponent that Casey and I watched courtside in game two of the Final Four hoping and (silently) cheering them on so that Purdue would not have to play UConn. Alas, that was not to be. Instead, Purdue faced UConn so that both teams season’s ended with a game against UConn.
Now, this Alabama team sits at #2 in the country and heads to Mackey Arena to take on our Boilermakers. Purdue will put their non-conference winning streak on the line. How many of the nine players that played in Purdue last non-conference loss in December 2020 can you name? I put Casey to the test.
Casey and I talk about the talent on this Alabama team and how Purdue can find a way to win. Plus, we actually go on the record with predictions. Give us a watch or a listen before tipoff tonight.
