Im changing my 4 after watching MSU and Maryland this is the third time I have seen both these teams since conference play started.  And I continue to be underwhelmed.

Right now---I have to go Iowa, Indiana, Maryland, Purdue.

 

End of year--I am going IU, Iowa, Maryland, MSU

 

Purdue and Michigan will be 5 and 6.

 

I am just so glad we get to talk about IU potentially being top 4 in the Big!

1. Iowa - Best wins so far, although I don't think its a clear cut lead2

2. Indiana - Dominant play not against strongest competition but they have blown out the opponents at home and won close games on the road.  What more can you ask

3. Maryland - Weak schedule like IU, but they have won games.  Still not sold on them. 

4. Michigan - Had some struggles but they have won games when they needed too.

 

uhh... two national championships?

Now:
1a) Iowa
1b) Indiana
3) Maryland
4) Michigan

End of Season:
1)Indiana
2) Iowa
3)Purdue
4) Michigan

Indiana and Iowa have a 2 game lead on everyone else. Both with tough road games this week, Indiana @ Wisc and Iowa @ Maryland. If one of those teams can win and the other loses, then that team has a distinct advantage in my opinion. While the Feb schedule toughens up for IU it's still there for the taking. Avoiding the swoon will mean IU wins the conference. I think Maryland, PU, and MSU are already out of it or on the brink of being out of the race.

3 losses will win the conference outright. 4 losses and it could be a split.
