It’s been a few weeks since we first ranked the Big Ten teams and a lot has happened since; Purdue had the top spot then lost on a buzzer-beater, Northwestern won in East Lansing, and Indiana has yet to win a road game. Here’s our updated Big Ten power rankings based on what we know about each team now:
#1 Illinois
- Record: 13-3, 6-0
- KenPom/Bart Torvik: 11/12
The Illini are the only team without a loss in conference play so far this season after Michigan State fell to the Wildcats, so putting them in the first spot here was a pretty easy choice.
