SPARTANS WIN COMBINED CONFERENCE BASKETBALL TITLE

The B1G Conference Basketball regular season has concluded with the Michigan State Spartans at the top of the combined league standings. The MSU Men's team finished in second place while the MSU Women's team finished in third place. Their combined record of 23-11 is best among all teams.

1.    23-11     Michigan State
2.    21-13     Michigan
3.    20-14     Ohio State
4.    18-16     Purdue
5.    17-17     Iowa
       17-17     Illinois
       17-17     Nebraska
8.    16-18     Indiana
       16-18     Penn State
10.  15-19     Wisconsin
       15-19     Minnesota
12.    9-25     Northwestern

The two-game separation between MSU and UM is misleading, as the Spartans won three out of five games between the teams, losing twice by only a single point. Michigan State outscored Michigan in basketball this year by 52 points in five meetings.
