Perdue: Best in the Big Ten?

There are a number of teams that you might mention in the top tier of the Big Ten, including, probably Michigan State, Wisconsin, Ohio State and Indiana. However, you might want to throw in Perdue as well. The Boilermakers just got done handing the No. 10 Michigan State Spartans a 60-54 defeat the other day, They are now at 11-1 in conference play. Where did the Boilermakers come from? Check out the most recent post game wrap up to get the gist of the team. You’ll have a lot of catching up to do if you haven’t been following the Boilermakers all season long.

The rap on the Boilermakers is basically this: They are 20-5 overall, and they’ve been playing some very good basketball lately, as their conference record indicates. They’ve won 10 straight as of their Michigan State victory. The main guy on the offensive side of the ball is probably swing man Robbie Hummel who gets all over the stats box every night. Right now the Coaches Poll has Perdue ranked at No. 23 and the AP has then at 19, but if they can survive until Monday without a loss, they will probably get even lower numbers next week.
