Purdue enters the Big Ten tournament with little room for complacency after dropping five of its final seven regular-season games. Any hopes of a deep run have been replaced with a step-by-step approach as the sixth-seeded Boilermakers (21-10) open second-round play against 14th-seeded Southern California (16-16) on Thursday night in Indianapolis.

A flu-ridden squad was overwhelmed by then-No. 3 Duke in a humiliating 43-point loss at Madison Square Garden—the worst defeat in program history. Head coach Brad Underwood openly questioned his team’s toughness. Now, after three consecutive wins, including an 88-80 victory over then-No. 18 Purdue, Illinois is regaining its confidence.
