Indiana's women's basketball is coming off a rough loss against the buzzsaw that is the NO. 1 UCLA Bruins. The Bruins remain undefeated not only in Big Ten play but overall in the season and are the nation's top team for a reason.

The Hoosiers suffered their first loss in Big Ten play against the Bruins, moving them to 10-4 on the season and 2-1 in the conference. However, Indiana has a favorable matchup on the docket against Northwestern, a team that has struggled so far this season as they are just 7-8.

Indiana leads the Wildcats in the series 43-39, taking the lead in the last five years. The Hoosiers are currently on a five-game win streak over Northwestern dating back to the 2020-2021 season, winning each game by at least 10 or more points in that span. The biggest win for Indiana in that time span came back in the 2023-2024 season when the Hoosiers scored 100 points and held the Wildcats to just 59 points.
