On BTN they said Iowa still had a shot at the double bye. Here are today's games that are relevant:
Maryland @ Indiana
Wisconsin @ Purdue
The only game that might be relevant is the Wisc/Purdue game since Iowa only owns a tie breaker over Purdue. I'm not sure how the tiebreakers work if Wisc, Maryland, Purdue, and Iowa all finish 12-6 and who gets the #3 seed.
OTOH, is a 5 seed all that bad? Iowa would play the winner of Illinois/Minnesota where a wins gives them a little momentum heading into the 4/5 game.
Thoughts?
