Iowa: Tourney team you want to play

The difference between a 6/7 and a 1-2 isn't necessarily all that dramatic...

In some cases....

Lousville as a 2 seed is playin as good of ball as anybody in the country.

St. Louis as stated by the article comes in struggling.

So in one of the examples you provided I would say there is a HUGE difference.

Look at some other examples and that may not be the case.
 
If I were a fan of another team I would want to play Iowa Thursday or Friday. If I were the coach of a 2 seed and Iowa won that 1st game I would be extremely concerned that I may not be going to the Sweet 16.

Edit - I don't think anyone wants to play Iowa if they right the ship and win that 1st game...especially with only 2 days to prepare for our transition game and size.
