OK so we are 1 week into December. A relatively decent sample size so give me your updated predictions for how the B10 plays out this year. Ill go...
Top tier
1. Wisconsin- OK Im sold. This team can score when they need to and can still grind it out with the best of them.
2. Michigan State- Hesitant here. I mean aside from 5 minutes of the UK game I really havent been all that impressed but this team has to get it together eventually right??
3. Iowa- A little concerned about the D the last few games but the O has been great and getting Oglesby back should just give us another shooter.
4. OSU- Id have them higher but still sketchy on their O, D is legit and D wins so even a 1st place finish wouldnt shock me.
2nd tier
5. Michigan- I dont like putting UM here at all as they have been a HUGE disappointment but they have talent. If they can figure out the PG position they should be OK but thats a big IF.
6. Minnesota- I like this team. They have some solid returning pieces and the they seem to be getting better unlike some of the other teams in the league.
7. Indiana- Again the Hoosiers have been wholly unimpressive and at times downright bad but the talent is there. Unlike UM the Hoosiers have a PG but they need to figure out how to make a shot further than 6 feet from the basket.
8. Nebraska- BIGGEST jumper in my ranking from my initial thoughts. This team is actually pretty damn alright. Could see them making a tourney run if things fall right and UM and IU cant get their shit together
9. PSU- The next 3 teams are all pretty much a tossup IMO. Nothing special about any of them so Ill go with the best player off of any of those teams, Tim Frazier, and take PSU.
10. Illinois- Read above and substitute Rayvonte Ricce for why Illini are ahead of Purdue.
11. Purdue- Eh, not much to say. They arent bad just not good.
3rd tier
12. NW- Only team in the B10 I cant see making a move. Not much size, not much quickness. Theyll beat someone they shouldnt but cant see them winning more than 2 or 3 B10 games
