8. Indiana Hoosiers

Previously Ranked: 6

Record: 7-1

Indiana has reeled off four straight wins since their stunning defeat in Fort Wayne. They have managed to knock off North Carolina in Bloomington during that stretch. Their next battle comes on December 17th against mid-major power Butler.

Four players are contributing over 10 points per game with James Blackmon Jr. leading the way at 17.7 per contest. He is also grabbing 7.2 rebounds and 2.3 assists a night.

Thomas Bryant and swingman OG Anunoby are making serious pushes for NBA consideration with their contributions on both of the court. The Hoosiers will have stiff competition from Wisconsin throughout the year, but they can win the Big Ten for a second straight season if things continue on their current path.
