The Big Ten was one of the best conferences in the country last year and looked to be very good again this year. They had the top team in the country coming into the season in Michigan State and two other top ten type teams, including middle of the pack teams such as the Indiana basketball program.
The conference was again supposed to be very deep with the possibility of getting seven or eight bids into the NCAA Tournament. After two weeks and some uneven play, it looks like the Big Ten still has some things to prove.
