It’s time for the first of two final tune-up matches at Mackey Arena before the conference season kicks off in early January. Today’s game essentially serves one purpose: We brought Carson Cunningham’s team home so he can collect a big check for his school.
This one probably won’t be pretty. There is a gap of about 350 places in the KenPom rankings between Purdue and Incarnate Word. This is one of the biggest gaps you will see all season in sports. The Cardinals struggled, only beating Grambling State at the Division I level and even losing Concordia-Texas non-Division I. KenPom ranks them as one of America’s Worst Five, while Purdue is in the Top Five. better.
If Purdue loses that game, he shouldn’t be allowed to play in the NCAA tournament. We’re going to win, by far, and the walk-ons should have a long run. Get them in before the last media timeout.
