With a victory at longtime rival USC on Sunday, the Bruins will be just the fourth program to finish with a perfect regular season in Big Ten women's college basketball. The last to do it was Maryland in 2015, the season the Terps joined the Big Ten and advanced to the Final Four for the second year in a row. The others were Purdue in 1999, when the Boilermakers won the national championship, and Ohio State in 1985.
