Poll results and new poll


We had an interesting and dramatic finish to the Basketblog's first poll, folks. It actually ended in a tie, meaning I have to break it by making the final vote. Here's the rundown of how the 21 total votes panned out, in reverse order, just for the sake of suspense:
Ohio State-1
Minnesota-1
Illinois-1
Purdue-2
Iowa-8
Michigan State-8
Honestly, I'm extremely surprised to see the Boilermakers get so little love from everyone. They have a solid team that is balanced on both ends of the floor, offensively and defensively. I like the optimism by Hawkeye fans, but sorry, I'm going to have to side with the Spartans on this one. The team is just too stacked with quality athletes and their coach's resume speaks for itself. Izzo will have MSU cruising through the Big Ten all the way to Indianapolis in early April.

Don't forget to vote one the new poll everyone-Who will win the Big 12 in men's basketball this season?-and to post comments and send emails!

    I agree Robbie, where is the love for the Boilermakers? This is a solid team that has made the tournament the last two years and also competed for the Big Ten Title. They won 27 games last year and have basically everyone back from that team.

    In case you couldn't figure it out already, I was one of the two people that voted for Purdue. I think they will win the Big Ten this year with solid play by Chris Kramer, Robbie Hummel, and JaJuan Johnson.
