For at least a week, we should be ranked higher than ISU

We will be and I wouldn't be shocked if Iowa State drops out in a couple of weeks.

Kenpom has us at 4 now. They have Villanova at 2, who would have thought that that game featured top 5 level teams.
 
What does Iowa's ranking have to do with ISU? If ISU were ranked #1, I'd be no less excited about this Iowa BB team.

It's more fun when you're better than ISU (obviously we don't know if this is true or not. I like our style of play a lot more and I feel it presents more opportunity for consistency than there's but they are good too they just run too much iso and do a lot of chucking for my liking.)
 
Just remember, according to Iowa State fan, Iowa State was the better team last year, even though they lost to Iowa. This year, according to Iowa State fan, Iowa State is the better team even if they lose their next 5 and fall apart thereafter, because they beat Iowa.

So we wouldn't meet them until the National Championship game...opposite sides of the brackets. Perfect! That's right where I want to get revenge.

Agreed, but the clowns talked enough **** to fill a stable. They are in a free fall and we are getting better. We play them at our place now we win by 15 and they know it.

pretty sure you meant for the rest of the year. ISU= downward spiral. Iowa= just getting started

exactly right. clownz were just hot at the beginning of the year, and now the wheels falling off. iowa will get better as the saison progresses. kind of reminds of a certain fb team...
 
Good chance of 15-3, or at least that's my guess. I think we finally have a team that may not lose a game that they should win. Possible losses: at MSU, MSU at home, at meat chicken, whisky at home, at indiana being the (hate this expression)"trap game". That being said, I believe we will not lose at home. I think we flat out have too much for Indiana. The only way meat chicken beats us is if stauskas and little tiny Albrecht(?) kid shoot lights out all night long, along with some bad calls. It seams unrealistic to think that we may not lose again in B1G play, but if we can beat MSU at home and have that confidence leading into the 2nd showdown, it's possible. Iowa will be hungry to avenge the loss to Whisky, it's our only loss that we will have the chance to right......... The rest: we kill NW, Illinois doesn't have the wing play to keep up at home or on the road, meat chicken at home and at psu (one will be closer than expected, but both wins), same with at MN or purdue at home. That leaves OSU at home. I think we win in a close one........................ So there is the ceiling................................Worst case I hope: lose both to msu, OSU gets revenge, can't handle whisky again, and we get knocked off twice by teams we should beat. I.e. meat chicken and Indiana leaving us at 7-6 in the last 13, 11-7 over all in conference
 
Just my best guess. The only other loss I think that might happen is we lose at Michigan Wednesday.
