The Big Ten has gotten it handed to them this year.

The Big Ten style of basketball needs to be changed to a faster pace in order to survive the NCAA tournament. You can't just put 7' clods in the game and expect them to compete with a faster team.
Full court Press and tough defense with speed is needed these days.
Swarming defenses in the paint and full court pressure swamped the Boiler Makers boat for sure.
IU and Iowa are the only teams that I saw surviving. I didn't or hear what happened to Michigan yet. They probably lost to ND as well.

I guess the Big Ten Champs are showing the world how tough the Big Ten can be. They just defeated the SEC Champs Kentucky.
WTO IU.
This was a close game the entire way though with IU taking the lead by 7 to 8 points at the 5 minute to go mark and then they maintained the lead.
Ulis and Yogi were amazing and fun to watch.
IU had three players go down and they still ended up winning the game.
