I guess Iowa's collapse will start in March this year...

Agreed. Who cares that ISU is better, just be happy Iowa is even in the NCAA tourney conversation even if they aren't in the conference title conversation like big bro
I've always said ISU is the better team. Not sure why this is so hard. Same goes for Iowa football being the better football team the past two years.
In football ISU was better team last year, Iowa was the better team this year
Interesting rankings, not sure I agree with the order of the Top 3.

Northwestern and Rutgers both have losing records. Indiana has won 2 games in January and February combined. Beating bad teams unconvincingly or in miracle fashion doesn't warrant a rankings rise.
I can't argue with it too much. I think B1G =BXII more or less, with edge to B1G due to a little better top end. The top of the ACC is heads and shoulders above the other two leagues.
Yeah I agree with MartinCy here.. Beat Maryland tonight and keep dropping, then we have a gripe.
Writer brutally slams Iowa without saying a single word about them. Ouch:
This feels like another season where the Big Ten could send a bunch of teams to the NCAA tournament but come away without a national title, which a league rep hasn't won since 2000. The top of the conference is led by a pool of good teams (Michigan, Michigan State, Purdue, Wisconsin and Maryland), but none great. And that reality is one of the reasons the Big Ten is a middle-of-the-pack viewing experience in college basketball. Sure, they're all chasing and scrapping with one another, but the league lacks that premier battle between juggernauts that's fueling the conference races in the ACC and the SEC. -- Myron Medcalf
How so? Right now they're right outside of that group. That's the reality. Nothing about this is a "slam". You're reaching IMO.
Because there are douche canoe Iowa fans on their second, third username that are afraid to admit who they are because they have tiny schlongs.
ACC definitely has more national title contenders. I would go:
1A- Big 12
1B- B1G
2- ACC
The bottom of the B1G drags it down, IMO.
Just the last two years? OK, we'll take the rest I guess.
The experts put WAY too much weight into the top tier of each conference. Yes, the ACC has the most title contenders but when the schedule is that watered down why does it really matter? The same can be said for the B1G. There are a lot of bad basketball teams between the ACC and B1G.
To be fair, you guys have your fair share of Canoes constructed of douche as well.
