 2021 Big Ten Tournament bracket is set. Here's what it looks like.

The Big Ten regular season is officially complete. It came to an end with Penn State's comeback win over Maryland on Sunday night, so we now know where all fourteen teams will be seeded. We already knew Ohio State was locked in as the No. 5 seed after its loss to Illinois on Saturday, but now we have a complete picture of the road that it must travel if it has designs of finding its winning form from a couple of weeks ago.

Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields is going to go in the first half of the first round of the 2021 NFL draft. You can almost bank on that. But where exactly he lands is up for debate.

There are experts that have provided their thoughts, but what do the analytics say? We've seen plenty of 2021 NFL mock drafts by guys like Todd McShay, Mel Kiper, and Chad Reuter, all based on opinion.

NEED A REVENGE TOUR

For obvious reasons to anybody who paid attention to Michigan in 2018, it would be probably best for Holtmann to avoid using the term “Revenge Tour.” But that idea is what the Buckeyes will have to execute. 

Ohio State lost to Northwestern on Dec. 26 and Minnesota on Jan. 3. One of those two teams will be their second-round opponent. The Buckeyes lost to Purdue on Dec. 16 and Jan. 19, and the Boilermakers will be awaiting a rematch on Friday in the quarterfinals. If Ohio State wins two in a row, it'll likely have another shot in the semifinals at Michigan, which won 92-87 on Feb. 21. Then, if the Buckeyes make it all the way to the conference title game, they might meet either Illinois or Iowa, the two teams they lost to at the end of the regular season.

In other words, if Ohio State is to make a run all the way to the championship game next Sunday, it should expect to have to do so by going entirely through teams it has already lost games to in the past three months.
