The Big Ten Tournament will be an exciting one when it tips off in Chicago next week, and the champion will have a chance to be a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament (with some help from other conferences).

Heading into the tourney, the No. 1 seed is Michigan State, followed by fellow regular-season co-champion Purdue at the No. 2 spot.

As you can see below, the seeds 1-14 have been set after Sunday’s game between Wisconsin and Ohio State ended with a Badger victory in overtime. Here’s how things will shape up next week:
