The Big Ten conference is as deep as it has ever been. Currently, there are 12 teams looking like they have realistic shots to make the tournament. A lot can change in the last month, but it wouldn’t be a surprise if all 12 of those teams see their name called on selection Sunday.
Preseason favorite Michigan State is only a half-game out of first but are currently looking up at two teams and have two other teams with the same amount as losses as them. Penn State just beat them in East Lansing and Rutgers almost won at Maryland.
