B1G hoops: An updated look at the conference standings
What an interesting weekend in the B1G.
On Saturday, No. 4 Ohio State extended its winning streak to six games by posting a 78-59 victory over Indiana. A few hours later, No. 15 Iowa pummeled Michigan State 88-58, handing the Spartans their worst home loss in the history of the famous Breslin Center (1989).
A day later, No. 3 Michigan made a triumphant return to the hardwood after a three-week pause and had a tough task by going on the road to play No. 21 Wisconsin. But the Wolverines erased a 12-point halftime deficit and defeated the Badgers 67-59. Then, Nebraska got its first win of the B1G season in exciting fashion, knocking off Penn State 62-61.
Just another fun week in the best college basketball conference in the country.
