The Purdue Boilermakers reigned supreme in the Big Ten this year, finishing atop the standings with a 17-3 mark against conference opponents. The Illinois Illini finished three games back at 14-6 but never threatened the team that enters the tournament ranked No. 3 in the USA TODAY Coaches Poll.
On the other end of the spectrum, there are the Michigan Wolverines and their brutal campaign in which they won just three of 20 intra-conference matchups. A total of six teams ended up under .500 while three hit the even mark and five brought home winning records.
