Big ten basketball tournament bracket -projection update

Almost a full week before the first round of the Big Ten tournament. In many ways, the event marks the real start of the off -season of College basketball.

It is still to be decided before the bracket is unveiled. The two-team race around the conference race will probably be the last day of the regular season on Sunday, March 9th. In the meantime, the rest of the conference fights for the positioning of big ten and for the NCAA tournament. Unlike in previous years, there is even a race at the end of the 18-team conference to create the 15-team tournament field.

Nach season projections should change every day. The schedule of Tuesday offers Big Ten Matchups between Indiana and Oregon, Nebraska and the state of Ohio as well as Rutgers as well as No. 18 Purdue. This first game affects the sowing of big ten. The second could prove important for the NCAA tournament in Nebraska. The third is crucial for Purdue’s striving for a double -bye in the conference tournament.

Before these teams take the place, this is a good time for a snapshot at the projected Big Ten tournament clip when the season ended after the games on Monday, March 3.

Note: Michigan State (15-3 Big Ten), Michigan (14-4), Maryland (12-6) and Wisconsin (12-6) are expected to receive double BYEs, which are in order No. 1 to No. 4. Iowa (6-12), Penn State (5-14) and Washington (4-14) are 222222222in lines to completely miss the field.
