It was a wild week of Big Ten hoops this past week.

Each of the top five teams from our power rankings lost at least once last week, including Michigan State who dropped a home game vs. Wisconsin. So what can we make out of the “true” contenders for the Big Ten crown?

Let’s see where Michigan State lands in our updated Big Ten power rankings:

With only a month to go in the regular season, it is becoming more clear who belongs at the top of the Big Ten.

It was another up and down week for the Spartans, as Michigan State went 1-1 this past week — which included a blowout loss to Rutgers. That loss was eye-opening and has made it clear the separation at the top of Big Ten from the good teams to the great teams.

Let’s see where Michigan State lands in our updated Big Ten power rankings:

Another week and another team holding the No. 1 spot in our power rankings.

Last week, Michigan State premiered as the top team in our weekly power rankings but the Spartans were unable to hold onto that spot. So who is the new top team and where does Michigan State land this week?

Check out our complete Big Ten power rankings below:

It’s crazy how much things can change from one week to the next when it comes to Big Ten basketball.

Last week, Michigan State was at its lowest point following a home loss to Northwestern. However, today the Spartans are at their highest mark after an impressive double-digit victory over Wisconsin.

So where do the Spartans land in our updated batch of power rankings? Let’s take a look at where we have Michigan State and the rest of the Big Ten teams in our updated weekly power rankings:

It wasn’t a great week of basketball for Michigan State.

The Spartans’ nine-game winning streak was snapped this weekend in a disappointing home loss to Northwestern. Earlier in the week, Michigan State also needed late-game heroics to survive Minnesota’s upset bid. So it’s safe to say it wasn’t a great week for Michigan State.

With things not going as many Spartans’ fans thought they would, how far will Michigan State drop in our weekly power rankings? Let’s take a look at where we have the Spartans and the rest of the Big Ten teams in our updated weekly power rankings:

A complete slate of conference play this week resulted in quite a bit of shakeup in our weekly power rankings — especially at the top of the league.

For the first time this season, Purdue is not the top team in the league and we have a new No. 1 squad. Who is replacing the Boilermakers as our top Big Ten team this week?

Michigan State continues to remain one of the top teams in the Big Ten in our latest batch of power rankings.

There wasn’t a ton of action this past week, but Michigan State did pick up a pair of wins — including a road conference win over Northwestern. Those two wins keep the Spartans near the top of our power rankings.

It was a quiet week for the Big Ten, but there were still a handful of games that resulted in some slight shifts in our weekly power rankings.

A number of teams — including the Spartans — didn’t play this past week due to finals or COVID-related cancelations. So with there being a lack of games, there will be a lack of notable changes in the newest batch of power rankings.

Let’s take a look at where we have the Spartans and the rest of the Big Ten teams in our updated weekly power rankings:

It’s the time of the year where we can for the most part turn all of our focus from the gridiron to the hardwood. So it’s only fitting we get started with a new weekly batch of Big Ten basketball power rankings.

Throughout the fall, Spartans Wire would release a weekly football power rankings poll of the Big Ten teams. Now that we are onto the bowl season, we are shifting to a similar weekly power rankings poll for men’s basketball.

Let’s take a look at where we have the Spartans and the rest of the Big Ten teams in our initial power rankings:
