Comment: Really, after those top-five ranked teams, the rest of the conference is just chaotic. Who's to say if a 2-2 Maryland team that has missed three games from COVID-19 cancellations is better than a 2-5 Rutgers that has played all of its games and kept them all pretty close? The teams themselves probably don't even know.
