Battle 4 Atlantis Schedule Announced--Hammer and Rails

This will be the first time Purdue has faced Tennessee since 2009, where they defeated the Volunteers 73-72 in the championship game of the Paradise Jam Tournament.

Based on the schedule, Purdue will then face the winner or loser of the Villanova/Western Kentucky game. If the Boilermakers face Villanova, it will be a rematch of their meeting last season, where Villanova won 79-76 in Mackey Arena. From there, Purdue will either face Arizona, NC State, Northern Iowa, or SMU.
