Purdue's women's basketball served notice to the rest of the Big Ten conference that this year's team is the real deal. It was one thing to win at Michigan and against Illinois at home, as those teams look so far to be mid to lower tier teams in the conference. It is another thing to beat #16 Northwestern on their court. As the third highest ranked Big Ten team, Northwestern had a very good season going into yesterday's match-up with the Boilers. With Purdue dominating on both ends of the floor, the wheels came off for the Wildcats for much of this game.
