The start of March Madness is rapidly approaching. In one month, the most entertaining tournament in sports will be underway.
Bracketologists at several different outlets continually update their predictions for seed lines and last-second bids as the regular season winds down and we embark on the postseason. CBS Sports’ Jerry Palm recently released his latest Bracketology, which includes 7 teams from the B1G.
No team from the league has earned a No. 1 seed at this time. The highest-seeded team in the tournament from the league, per Palm, is Purdue at No. 2. Behind the Boilermakers is Wisconsin, which is penciled in on the 3-line.
Squeaking into the tournament are Iowa (10 seed) and Indiana (11 seed). Two teams making a strong push but still aren’t included right now are Michigan and Rutgers.
Here’s a look at the 7 teams Palm is including from the B1G.
No. 2 seed: Purdue
No. 3 seed: Wisconsin
No. 4 seed: Illinois
No. 4 seed: Michigan State
No. 5 seed: Ohio State
No. 10 seed: Iowa
No. 11 seed: Indiana
