Big Ten Power Rankings: Spartans rise after rivalry win, impressive week of basketball

See where Michigan State lands in our latest batch of Big Ten basketball power rankings

Michigan State was able to pick up a pair of wins, with a notable win over rival Michigan on Saturday. You could argue the competition wasn’t highly-quality but a 2-0 week in this league is impressive regardless of who you’re playing.

Elsewhere in the Big Ten, there was madness with Purdue finally losing their first game, Iowa pulling off a miracle comeback and Illinois finally picking up their first conference win. So how do all of this week’s results shake up our power rankings?
