Rankings from AP poll

With a new head coach and coming off their first losing season in 29 years, the bar for this group was quite low. However, thanks to a dominant 8–0 start, dominating wins over Miami and Saint Louis, and a home win against a ranked conference foe Illinois, they reached as high as #13 in the AP poll. They did suffer some lopsided losses but played exceptionally well at home; they were the only team in the Big Ten to have a perfect home record in the conference, where they finished 11–9 in a 3-way tie for fifth place. They earned an 8-seed in the NCAA tournament and beat West Virginia in the first round before falling to overall number 1 seed Alabama.
