Heading into the final week of college basketball’s regular season, the top of the Big Ten Conference has the potential to test the rigorous seeding tiebreaker rules as a five-way tie atop the conference is plausible. The close conference race means the Wisconsin basketball team could hold anywhere from the No. 1 to the No. 7 seed in the upcoming Big Ten Tournament.
Ahead of Tuesday’s conference action, the Indiana Hoosiers lead the conference with a 13-3 Big Ten record, while Wisconsin, Michigan State, Iowa and Maryland all sit two games behind at 11-5. Ohio State (11-6), Purdue (10-6) and Michigan (11-7) round out the Big Ten teams with winning records.
