I have crunched some numbers, and it seems where you place in the B1G Basketball standings, almost directly correlates with the number of homes games you played. This particular season it is extremely tough to win on the road. How tough? With the exception of Northwestern, every team has played within 1 win or 1 loss of the number of home games played. This equates to a B1G road record of 47 wins in the B1G, but only 4, yes 4 have been on the road.
MSU seems to be running away with it right now, but their time on the road will come, they've only played 2 on the road.
Below is a number of home and road games per team, and their overall record.
