12 of PU's 22 Big Ten basketball championships were before 1939, first year of the NCAA basketball tournament. IU had just 3 prior to 1953. Since the opening of Assembly Hall in 1971 in Bloomington, as far back as most anyone can remember (I said most), IU has 14 Big Ten basketball championships, including 10 outright, versus PU's 8 with 4 outright. Oh, and since the turn of the century, its 3 to 1. Pretty sad PUke has to tout championships from before WWI and the Great Depression. Little brother indeed.
