Last night was a pivotal one in the Big Ten. Rutgers got a very important win over Maryland at home, 78-67, to make sure the Scarlet Knights didn't fall off the bubble. Michigan State won at Penn State, 79-71, which puts the Spartans in a tie for first place with Maryland. Finally, Purdue beat Iowa in Iowa City, 77-68, to keep the Boilers in the NCAA Tournament conversation, unfortunately. With one to two games left for each team, we are no closer to knowing the seeding for the Big Ten Tournament than we were in November.
Tonight, IU has a big home tilt with Minnesota, while Northwestern travels to Madison to play Wisconsin in what will presumably be a bloodbath.
Again, to point out how ridiculously strong the Big Ten is this year, the conference currently holds the top 6, 10 of the top 12, and 12 of the top 17 strongest schedules according to the BPI strength of schedule metric. Only Illinois (28) and Rutgers (34) are have a strength of schedule lower than 17.

2. Maryland (14-6)
4. Wisconsin (13-7)
5. Penn State (12-8)

NCAA Tournament Resumes for All 14 Big Ten Teams
Here is each Big Ten team's NCAA Tournament resume, including each team's BPI ranking (based on ESPN's BPI rankings), NET ranking (based on the NCAA's NET rankings), overall record against D-1 opponents, BPI strength of schedule, and record against all four NET Quadrants (for an explanation of the NET rankings and the Quadrants, click here, and note that the Quadrants don't include record against non-D1 opponents). An * means the game was played on a neutral court. I have categorized the teams by "In," "Bubble," or "Out," which is my best guess, based on what I know right now, as to whether each team is a lock for the NCAA Tournament, is on the bubble, or is out. For the "In" and "Out" teams, I'm putting them in order based on NET ranking. For the "Bubble" teams, I am putting them in order based on what I think their likelihood of making the NCAA Tournament is (which may or may not fall in line with the NET or BPI rankings). For the "Out" teams, I'm just listing the BPI and NET ranking (and record), since their quality wins or bad losses are pretty much irrelevant given their records.
