It's not often a team can lose a game and capture outright the top spot in the Big Ten on the same day, but that's what IU did on Saturday with a little help from in-state rival Purdue. The Boilermakers knocked-off No. 11 Wisconsin yesterday, meaning every team in the Big Ten has at least one conference loss besides the Hoosiers.
That being said, IU has not played a single team with a winning record in conference play (Purdue, Ohio State, MSU and Wisconsin). That will change as 7 of the next 10 are against those four teams. IU has struggled against the best two teams it has faced, Xavier and UConn, dropping both games.
The question is: how good is IU? Are the Hoosiers the team to beat for the Big Ten title? If not, which team is?
