- Wis is #1, TOS is 3, IN 7 and MS 8.
- Purdue is all alone at 21
- MN and MI are 42 and 44
- NW & Ill are are at 58 and 55
- NU-100, IA-129 and PS-142
If one of the teams in 3, 4, or 5 starts to play better, they will have a good shot at getting to the Dance but 8-10 or worse in conference isn't going to cut it.
NU vs Wis is the first conference game and Wis should win by 12, 58-46.
