Efficiency Margin update after today's games:
Notes:
- Purdue running away with margin, difference between Purdue and #2 Illinois (.077) is greater the difference between #2 Illinois and #10 Maryland (.075)
- Illinois a neck up in the mess of a middle, thanks to two games against Nebraska.
- Teams 4-8 are basically interchangeable, except for tournament chances Michigan needs to be better than this.
- Maryland has almost made up the ground they lost getting blasted by 35 against Michigan last month.
- Wisconsin is bad and should feel bad.
- Honestly, the conference is starting to look kind of how everyone expected, except with Purdue at the top, Northwestern in the mix, and MSU off the pace.
- Illinois has the best defensive efficiency in the conference now, again thanks to 2 Nebraska games. Offense is basically league average, and if they can pick it up offensively, they can start really making a run here when the schedule toughens up.
