Purdue basketball gets rival Indiana twice. How does rest of Big Ten schedule shake out?

WEST LAFAYETTE ― Purdue basketball's quest for a third Big Ten regular season title in four years now has its path. On paper, the Boilermakers' 20-game league schedule for 2025-26 appears to be favorable.

Other Purdue Big Ten home games: Illinois, Michigan, Michigan State, Minnesota, Oregon, Penn State and Washington. Other Purdue Big Ten road games: Maryland, Nebraska, Northwestern, Ohio State, Rutgers, UCLA and USC. Purdue's west coast trip, after traveling to Washington and Oregon last season, will be the double dip in Los Angeles, marking its first appearance at USC's Galen Center and its first game at Pauley Pavilion since 1999 when former Purdue coach Gene Keady faced former Boilermaker assistant Steve Lavin.
