The final game of the regular season was a surprising one, with Mark Turgeon’s Maryland Terrapins getting upset at home by Penn State. The Terps have now dropped back-to-back games against Northwestern and Penn State.
While Maryland should still be in the NCAA Tournament come Selection Sunday, a win in the Big Ten Tournament wouldn’t hurt.
Maryland is the No. 8 seed in the Big Ten Tournament and will take on No. 9 seed Michigan State on Thursday.
Michigan is the No. 1 overall seed, though the Wolverines are coming off a tough loss to the Spartans. Illinois is the No. 2 overall seed with Iowa as the No. 3 seed. Here’s the full bracket:
