Michigan and Purdue have met in several memorably games over the last two seasons. Most of those meetings were defined by each team’s inability to guard the opposition.

The two programs will link up for an early Big Ten test on Saturday (3:30 p.m., ESPN) but the old narratives can finally be put to rest. Both teams play a different style of basketball in 2018-19 and are ready to write a new chapter.
