Wed Jan 15 21:20:00 UTC 2025: ## Purdue Boilermakers Aim for West Coast Victory Against Washington Huskies

**SEATTLE, WA** – Riding high from a 104-point performance, the #17 Purdue Boilermakers (13-4, 5-1 Big Ten) embark on a crucial road trip, starting with a showdown against the Washington Huskies (10-7, 1-5 Pac-12) tonight at 9:30 p.m. ET (6:30 p.m. PT). The game, airing on the Big Ten Network, marks a significant opportunity for Purdue to maintain its Big Ten title chase.

Despite only one conference loss, Purdue trails Michigan and Michigan State, who remain undefeated in conference play. A win against Washington is considered essential for the Boilermakers to keep pace in a tightly contested Big Ten race. The team understands that consistent performance, particularly on the road, is key to claiming the conference crown.

“This is a game Purdue should win,” said a source close to the team. “It’s a must-win to stay in contention.”

The matchup represents a significant milestone for the Boilermakers. A conference road game against a Pac-12 opponent was almost unthinkable just a few years ago, highlighting the program’s recent rise to prominence.

Tip-off is scheduled for 9:30 p.m. ET, a late start for East Coast viewers. The game will be broadcast on the Big Ten Network with Guy Haberman and Don MacLean on commentary, and also on the Purdue Global Radio Network with Rob Blackman and Bobby Riddell.
