On Sunday, the Big Ten women’s basketball regular season comes to a close. Even though the regular season championship-winning UCLA Bruins already received their trophy, Sunday comes with an air of importance thanks to the Big Ten Tournament, specifically, where each team will fall in the 15-team bracket.

This was a tough one. Both teams feelt dead even all night long. Michigan State got a late push, Purdue had two chances to tie or win at the end, and didn’t pull it off. Damn good classic Big Ten basketball game. This will go easier if I dive right into the bullet points: Can […]
We were only a few minutes into this one before it looked like it was going to be a long night as Purdue started the game off on a 9-2 run. They were outhustling Michigan State and were getting easy buckets for Oscar Cluff down low. They took a 13-6 lead heading into the first […]
