There are currently five Big Ten teams in the Top 25: No. 1 UCLA, No. 4 USC, No. 8 Ohio State, No. 14 Maryland and No. 16 Michigan State. Minnesota recently dropped from being no. 25 but is one of three Big Ten teams to receiver votes in the latest poll, with the others including Michigan and Nebraska who IU just defeated.
Indiana will likely receive a few votes in the next AP Top 25 WBB poll which will be dropped next week.
