The Skinny on Purdue Non-Conference Schedule

Final 2014-15 RPI listed in parentheses.

PURDUE
Nov. 13: NORTH CAROLINA A&T (340)
Nov. 15: VERMONT (204)
Nov. 18: INCARNATE WORD (160)
Nov. 21: vs. Old Dominion (46)
Nov. 22: vs. Florida (72)/Saint Joseph's (178)
Nov. 28: LEHIGH (175)
Dec. 1: @ Pitt (76)
Dec. 5: NEW MEXICO (172)
Dec. 7: IUPUI (259)
Dec. 9: HOWARD (254)
Dec. 12: YOUNGSTOWN STATE (291)
Dec. 19: vs. Butler (31)
Dec. 22: VANDERBILT (104)

Home/Road/Neutral Split: 9/1/3
Top 50 Opponents (2): Butler, Old Dominion
NCAA Qualifiers (1): Butler (Round of 32)
NIT Qualifiers (3): Old Dominion (Final 4), Vanderbilt (quarterfinals), Pitt (1st round)
Average RPI of Opponents: 176

2 Cents: For a team facing high expectations with the return of A.J. Hammons and the surprise arrival of super frosh Caleb Swanigan, this is a mostly nondescript schedule. I do like home games vs. New Mexico and up-and-coming Vanderbilt, and the neutral-site games vs. Old Dominion and Butler will be difficult tests.

Kansas State and Oklahoma both released their schedules today. K-State has a couple nice road contests at Georgia on Dec. 4 and at Texas A&M on Dec.12. Their home schedule is pretty weak though, and outside of Ole Miss the only other somewhat decent opponent is St. Louis. Oklahoma on the other hand hosts Wisconsin on Nov. 29 and Creighton on Dec. 19.
