It's really for all the marbles in the Big 10. If the Badgers do beat Purdue, it will give them a two game lead based on record, and if they end up tied in losses at the end of the year, the Badgers win because they'd have won Sunday's game in Madison. It also would give them the #1 seed in the Big 10 tournament, and Purdue would have to go through heavy hitters to make it to the finals, where the Badgers would be waiting for them.
When it comes to the NCAA tournament, it could also end up with the Badgers being a #1 seed, although remote. If they were, they'd probably be in the Midwest region, which would make it easier for Badger fans to attend games, and we know they can be a game changer.
Regardless, win out for the rest of the year, and they'd at least be a #2 seed, and with that, would have a strong chance of being #2 in the Midwest also.
It's been fun watching how they keep getting better, and listening the experts, who thought they were the #10 team in the Big 10 are reacting. Some of them are even saying that the Badgers are beginning to look like a solid Final Four team. What a difference from what was said early in the year.
