Thu Jan 23 04:00:00 UTC 2025: **USC Women’s Basketball Faces Purdue in Peacock Doubleheader Tonight**
**Los Angeles, CA** – The undefeated USC Trojans (18-0, 7-0 Pac-12) take on the Purdue Boilermakers (7-11, 0-7 Big Ten) tonight at 7:00 PM ET in the first game of a Big Ten women’s basketball doubleheader on Peacock. This highly anticipated matchup pits the Trojans, boasting their best start since 1994 thanks to star player Juju Watkins’ impressive 20+ point average, against a struggling Purdue team currently experiencing a six-game losing streak and possessing the Big Ten’s worst scoring defense.
Watkins, a 2024-25 AP Preseason All-American, has been instrumental in USC’s success, consistently delivering high-scoring performances. She’s not alone, however, as graduate transfer Kiki Iriafen provides significant support with double-digit scoring in every game this season.
Purdue, on the other hand, faces a significant challenge, averaging a conference-low 64.2 points per game while allowing a league-high 74.2 points. Their quest for a much-needed first conference win will be a tough one against the dominant Trojans.
The game will be preceded by pre-game coverage starting at 6:30 PM ET. Following the USC-Purdue game, Iowa will face Washington at 9:00 PM ET. Both games will be streamed live on Peacock, which will broadcast 56 men’s and 26 women’s Big Ten basketball games this season, including the first rounds of both tournaments. Peacock subscriptions are available, with a special discount for students.
