| 1 |  | Indiana | Hosting Nebraska and Purdue was a very easy week in the Big Ten. This week they head to East Lansing. | 2 |

| 3 |  | Gonzaga | Gonzaga is 12-0 in WCC play after winning at Saint Mary's and USF. They only have one more road game left. | 3 |
| 4 |  | Michigan State | The Spartans blew out Michigan and now the Hoosiers are coming to town. MSU also goes to OSU on Sunday. | 8 |
