The Big Ten men's basketball tournament should be very competitive this season. Per the Ken Pomeroy college basketball rankings, eight teams sit between 13th and 50th, with five of them bunched up between 22nd and 38th.
The odds (see below) tell a similar story. Purdue and Wisconsin are the clear favorites, but six teams sit between 8-1 and 14-1 odds to win the Big Ten championship.
