Future Football Schedules Set

The Boiling Point: Purdue football’s 2013 and 2014 schedules have been set

(Update: Per a tweet by the Lafayette Journal & Courier’s Mike Carmin, Purdue has moved their 2013 game against Northern Illinois from 10/5 to 9/28 to avoid consecutive bye weeks)

The Boilers schedules for the 2013 and 2014 seasons were released today. Make your plans for them now. The 2013 schedule looks to be a brutal slate, especially with an improved Cincinnati program. Never know how Notre Dame will perform. They haven’t lived up to their talent the last couple years. One other thing of note on the 2013 schedule is that Purdue has two by weeks in a row. Three weeks between regular season games is kind of crazy, but playing Northern Illinois at the end of those byes should help them get back into game mode.

We don’t play Michigan or Minnesota these two seasons.
