What are you talking about?Furthermore, KP says their Defensive efficiency was 5.5 points better than the 24 Purdue team. So not only does KP data say that 26 Purdue has the best offense in 26, best offense all time, but also materially better in both offense and defense to their 24 team. Anyone with two eyeballs knows their 24 team was materially better.
2024 Purdue defensive rating: 94.6 (12th nationally)
2026 Purdue defensive rating: 100.5 (36th nationally)
Not once has Kenpom said Purdue’s 2026 defense was better than their 2024 defense.
2026 Purdue gave up 108.1 ppp. In 2024, they gave up 100.3. That’d be an insane claim to say 2026 is better lol.
