Hate the "all our teams are good, we just beat each other up argument," but the fact that a single win will make a team either the 2 seed or the 9 seed makes that about as true a statement as its ever been.

 

The B1G this year has 1 really good team, 12 teams that could beat each other any given night, and 1 really bad team.  I think there is a lot of "meh" in that middle group, but everyone beating each other has evened everything out.  I'll probably have at most 1 B1G team moving to the Sweet 16 in my bracket(s).  

 

B1G projected NCAA seeds from ESPN:

 

Purdue 2

Indiana 4

Michigan St 6

Northwestern 7

Iowa 7

Illinois 8

Maryland 8

Rutgers 11

Wisconsin 11

Penn St 11

Alright, lets say Big Red goes to the Big Tourney, knocks off Minny, squeeks by Maryland, and comes up just short against Indy. Record sits at 18-16, with a good number of quad 1 wins, and no quad 3 or 4 losses. Does it squeak into the Tourney? - I think we're a lock for the Not Invited Tourney, but is there a reality where NU could potentially still make the dance short of winning the BIG Tourney?

Nope - we needed to beat Michigan State and win at least 2 in the tourney to get anywhere close to the field of 64.  Our only shot to make the tourney is to win it all.  I honestly don't think we are a lock yet for the NIT.  We are still ranked in the 90s...  I think we need to beat Minny and at minimum have a good showing against Maryland to be considered.
