As long as Minny stays in the RPI Top 50, it will help Iowa.

IMHO, Iowa would need a second round BTT win to feel comfortable. A first round win against a sub 100 team doesn't add much to the resume. That is assuming, of course a 5-1 finish, losing only to IU.

All the playing in the B1G gets you is the opportunity for "good wins" and mitigates the possibility of "bad losses". If you research how the selection process is done, you will find that conference affiliation, in and of itself, means nothing. Iowa's Strength of Schedule in the non-con is...

Jereme Richmond at ILL will be in the conversation.

For advanced posters: roll, role birth, berth

Does that mean that McCaffrey needs to stay out of Illinois and North Carolina?
