With Gametimes
A chaotic final day of the regular season shook up the Big Ten standings—and probably set the tone for a busy five days in Indianapolis.
The Big Ten tournament bracket is set, with Sunday’s action headlined by two significant upsets by the street’s underdogs. First, Michigan trounced rival Ohio State in Columbus, followed by Nebraska’s 74–73 victory over Wisconsin, which deprived the Badgers of the outright regular season crown.
Illinois’ thrilling 74-72 victory over Iowa on Sunday night gave the Illini part of the championship and the top overall seed in the upcoming conference tournament. No. 2 Wisconsin (24–6, 15–5), No. 3 Purdue (25–6, 14–6) and No. 4 Rutgers (18–12, 12–8) round out the top four of the bracket.
The bottom four teams of the conference will start things off with a pair game on Wednesday, followed by four matches each on Thursday and Friday. The top four seeds will all get a bye in the quarterfinals.
