Winning against 21st ranked Wisconsin and completing the season sweep of No. 6 Michigan State have propelled the Indiana Hoosiers back into at-large bid contention. However, Indiana has some work to do in order to get back on the bubble and increase their odds at an at-large bid.
Listed as “first four out” in Joe Lunardi’s newest ESPN Bracketology, moving up from “next four out”, Indiana is joined by TCU, Creighton, and mid-major program St. Mary’s.
Another Big Ten team at risk of being left out of the big dance is Ohio State, who has lost two in a row by a combined 26 points to Purdue and Northwestern.
