Purdue vs Wisconsin; A Big Ten Basketball Showdown
The Purdue Boilermakers men’s basketball team is set to face the Wisconsin Badgers in a highly anticipated Big Ten showdown on Saturday, February 15, 2025, at Mackey Arena in West Lafayette, Indiana. Both teams are vying for the top spot in the conference standings, with Purdue (19-6, 11-3 Big Ten) coming off a recent road loss to Michigan, and Wisconsin (19-5, 9-4 Big Ten) riding a three-game winning streak.
The game, scheduled for 1 p.m. ET, will be broadcast on CBS and available for streaming on Paramount+. Purdue, ranked No. 7 in the AP Poll, holds a slight edge in the standings, trailing Michigan by just half a game. Wisconsin, ranked No. 16, is looking to solidify its position as a contender for the Big Ten title.
Purdue boasts a strong home record (12-1) and relies heavily on its three-point shooting, with 37% of its points coming from beyond the arc. Guard Braden Smith, averaging 16.4 points and 8.6 assists per game, remains a key player for the Boilermakers. Wisconsin, meanwhile, has shown resilience on the road, with a 4-4 record away from home, and will look to replicate its recent strong performances.
