Previous season

The Boilermakers finished the 2022–23 season 29–6, 15–5 in Big Ten play. With Northwestern's loss to Maryland on February 26, 2023, Purdue clinched a share of the Big Ten regular season championship.[1] With Michigan's loss to Illinois on March 2, Purdue clinched the outright regular season championship, its first outright championship since 2017.[2] The championship marked the school's 25th, the most in Big Ten history.[3] In the Big Ten tournament, they defeated Rutgers, Ohio State, and Penn State to win the tournament championship, the school's second. As a result, they received the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA tournament as the No. 1 seed in the East region. In the first round of the tournament they were upset by Farleigh Dickinson, becoming the second men's No. 1 seed to lose to a No. 16 seed ever, following Virginia's 2018 loss to UMBC.[4]
