Just said on Bracketology, "I'm sick of everyone at ESPN telling me how great Iowa State is. George Niang, The Mayor, blah blah blah. Then they lose in the 1st or 2nd round."

LOL, Dakich redeems himself.:D
 
I'm sick of the clowns also! They sure are a bunch off ODD fellows! I believe (even though I hate to admit) jock itch gets it! Lol
 
LOl....good post.

Yeah, Purdue's going to swat them back to L-ames in the 2nd round.

And adding final insult to injury, Iowa's going to win one more NCAA game than the cow-tippers this year.

2nd round? They have to get by Iona first. . . Hampton, UAB, Iona.
 
If I'm iowa state I'm really scared of iona. Iona is on an 8 game winning streak and puts up a ton of points and iowa state doesnt play defense

Also iowa state plays like **** away from Hilton
 
Kellogg says Iona gets up and down the court & ISU is heading to Denver (thinner air) could be a huge problem.....I'm calling upset....
 
Iona has been destroyed by any P5 team they've played. ISU will be favored by a lot and they should be but any game can be lost. Morris is not and will not be healthy the rest of the year either so the ceiling is ultimately pretty low.

Iowa State is favored by 6.5 points
 
It blows my mind that ISU got a 4 seed and Iowa a 7.

It surprises me that Iowa State got a 4 seed and Purdue got a 5 seed. Michigan State is getting their annual love and the rest of the Big 10 has been shown zero respect IMO. Only 1 team gets a seed higher than 5...
 
This times a thousand. I still don't understand it. I think Iowa State won 2 road games the entire big 12 schedule.

What have you done for me lately? Losing 6 of the last 8 games and exiting the B1G tournament in the first game (losing to Illinois of all teams) obviously did not impress the committee. I'm frankly surprised we're as high as 7.

What did ISU do to get a 4? Their best road wins are Cincinnati, Kansas State and Oklahoma State. One of these teams is in the field...as a 9 seed. Our best road wins were Purdue, Michigan State and Michigan. All 3 of these are in the field.
 
No way we're a 4 seed. I was thinking at best a 5 and when I saw Iowa at 7 I was thinking 6-8. That said we should beat Iona and the game with Purdue will be a good one. The Altitude will affect all teams out there. We will go as far as Morris' bum shoulder will take us.
 
To be fair Iowa State did win 5 of their last 12; 3 of their last 7; and 2 of their last 5. Let's see if the Big 12 deserves all of those high seeds.

Of course they deserve these seeds. The head of the selection committee said so and he should know. He's the VP of Athletic Operations at Oklahoma.

The seedings smelled a little fishy as they were unveiling them, then he came on. Nice of him to put the 3rd place team in a conference as a 2 seed in their home state, as well as the 6th place team from that conference as a 4 seed and the champion of the Big 10 as a 5 seed.

This matchup reminds me of the Tom Davis era. Every year, it seemed like they would pair Iowa against a run-and-gun team and every year, Iowa would win that first game because their opponent couldn't do what Iowa did better than Iowa. They were seeded lower because they really weren't as good as Iowa. I see the same thing here. The team I was worried about before the pairings were announced was Arkansas-LR. I watched them play and love them...but would hate to have to play them.
