Big Ten Tournament 2017: Final weekend seeding scenarios

Upsets in bold, road wins in italics.

Maryland 79, Rutgers 59
Purdue 86, Indiana 75
Ohio State 71, Penn State 70
Northwestern 67, Michigan 65
Illinois 73, Michigan State 70
Minnesota 88, Nebraska 73
Iowa 59, Wisconsin 57

The Badgers’ collapse means that Purdue has clinched the outright Big Ten title with a game to spare. The two bubble games both went the way of the team in a more desperate situation; Illinois absolutely had to win to stay reasonably close to the bubble and Northwestern would have been in danger if they finished the season 9-9, while Michigan and Michigan State both could use another regular-season win but probably don’t need one unless the bubble tightens in a big way next week.
