Returning the entirety of a Final Four team save one high-volume shooter in guard Ben Brust, you wouldn’t blame head coach Bo Ryan for changing as little as possible with his team.

Here’s how that all shook it out in the rankings for eight of our voters.
Maryland is well on its way to making a bowl game for the second straight year. At 5-2, they currently sit at third in the East division of the Big Ten, coming off of a big conference win over Iowa last week.
Coming off their second and final bye week of the season, the Badgers (1-1 Big Ten, 4-2 overall) look to start the home stretch with a win against Maryland (2-1, 5-2). Let’s take a look at five things to watch during the game.
