1 thru 11, how will it play out?

My Guess:

1. Michigan St - #1 seed in NCAA tourney
2. Purdue - #2 seed
3. Michigan - #4 seed
4. Minnesota - #6 seed
5. Illinois - #7 seed
6. Ohio St - #8 seed
7. Wisconsin - NIT
8. Northwestern - NIT or some other postseason tourney
9. Penn St
10. Indiana
11. Iowa
 

My "kill shot" for the Big 10:

1. Purdue (Elite 8)
2. Michigan State (Final 4)
3. Michigan (Sweet 16)
4. Minnesota (2nd round)
5. Ohio State (Sweet 16)
6. Illinois (2nd round)
7. Wisconsin (1st round)
8. Northwestern
9. Penn State
10. Indiana
11. Iowa

Big 10 goes 13-7 in NCAA.

NW & Penn St go to the NIT.
 

1. Purdue-NCAA
2. MSU-NCAA
3.OSU-NCAA
4. Minn-NCAA
5. UM-NCAA
6. Ill-NCAA
7. Wis-NCAA
8. NW-NIT
9. PSU-NIT
10. IU-NIT
11. Iowa-Extra time to work on there golf game
 

My prediction:
1. Purdue (Elite Eight)
2. Michigan St (Sweet 16)
3. Gophers (Sweet 16)
4. Michigan (Sweet 16)
5. Wisconsin (2nd Round)
6. Illnois (1st round)
7. Ohio St. (1st round)
8. Northwestern (NIT)
9. Indiana (NIT)
10. Penn ST (NIT)
11. Iowa
 

1. Purdue (Elite Eight)
-Most annoying team because they are so talented and now, experienced.
2. Michigan State (Elite Eight)
-People are making too big a deal of Suton being gone. What happenes if Morgan bounces back?...look out
3. Illinois (NCAA)
-Deep team that hangs hat on defense. Also, good recruiting class.
4. Ohio State (NCAA)
-They have the best player in the league and David Lighty returns at the point. Awesome starting 5.
5. Michigan (NCAA)
-Getting better every year. Harris is All-American-type and he has a good supporting cast with a solid freshman unit.
6. GOPHERS (NCAA)
-Great depth, good defenders, best freshman in Big Ten. Could sneak into top 4/5 if they can upset a few teams on the road.
7. Wisconsin (NIT)
-Just not enough athletes to compete with the big boys this year. They will spring some upsets and be competitive though.
8. Northwestern (NIT)
-Program has best players it probably has ever had; Problem is, so does everyone else in the Big Ten.
9. Penn State (NIT)
-Too much pressure will be placed on Battle. Not enough on the bench or on the blocks.
10. Indiana
-Better than last season, for sure.
11. Iowa
-Good shooters, but decimated by loss of transfers.
