We’ve reached Selection Sunday, with March Madnessjust around the corner.
But first, the Big Ten has to crown a tournament champion as Michigan and Purdue square off in the final. Michigan has run roughshod over the conference and looks like one of the best teams in the country this season. The Wolverines needed some late-game heroics from Big Ten player of the year Yaxel Lendeborg on Saturday, but they’ll be facing Purdue for the title today.The Boilermakers stumbled toward the end of the regular season, losing four of their last six games, but they’ve rediscovered themselves during this conference tournament run. This will be their fourth game in four days after dispatching Northwestern, Nebraska and UCLA.
