Minnesota Basketball: Big Ten Tournament seed scenarios

Minnesota is on fire.

They have the second longest active win streak among major conference teams (tied with Purdue and behind Florida, who has nine). This win streak has not only catapulted the Gophers from the NCAA Tournament bubble into the “lock” category, it has also set them up for some interesting and exciting Big Ten Tournament scenarios.

Let’s recap how the B1G Tourney works. The bottom four seeds play each other on Wed 3/8 in what amounts to a play in round.
