Happy Kenpom (and friends) day!

The season approaches, and with it come the preseason ratings!

Kenpom: #50 (12th in conference)
Torvik: #48 (14th in conference)
Evan Miyawaka: #55 (14th in conference)
Haslametrics: #43 (10th in conference)

None of them have any teams in the conference as being elite or any teams being terrible, with a handful of top-25 squads and a big jumble in the middle. Should be an interesting year in the extremely Big 10.

Which is to say "NU is competitive in a very competitive environment and they could get the short end of the stick, or if they're just a little better than we expect they could easily push for the tournament again."

Sounds about right.
