    Non-Conference record[edit]

    The Big Ten continued to outperform the other conferences. Every single league member had a winning nonconference record with the lowest (Michigan State) being .650. Only Hockey East had a winning record against the Big Ten but that was dwarfed by the overwhelming totals against four other leagues.
