***Iowa's NCAA Seed prediction thread***

[HawkPrdatr40]

I'm going to project Iowa is a 7 Seed..

 

[phdsvp]

8. They'll get blown out by whoever they play.

 

[Bigtenchamp]

Yeah 7 is what I predict.

 

[spliff45]

I'm going with a 6. When the 11 seed beats Iowa in the first round, it won't be an upset.

 

[Niemo]

8 seed

 

[SteveGarvey]

To be brutally honest, this team hasn't even been an NIT team the last month of the season. 7 or 8 is where we will be but it doesn't seem to matter at this point.

 

[Hawk4Fan]

NIT is where this team belongs...Fran needs fired for this crap

 

[MelroseHawkins]

I say 8 now.

 

[Sooby]

7 seed. The last 10 games will factor in, heavily.
Lose to a 10 seed.

J-E-T-S
Just End The Season.

5 or 6, and winning too.

Has Iowa as a 5 playing San Diego State.

 

[DJL]

7 and we will lose no matter who we play.

 

[Sooby]

If we can't beat a 12 seed, within our own conference,
how are we going to beat a 10 or an 11 seed, on a national level?!

 

[Mrke1]

7 line. If Illinois beats Purdue, maybe back to a 6 since the loss won't look as bad. But still bad.

But they won't play in the NIT, they'll play in the NCAA tournament.

Now, if they lose an NIT game this year, I agree, gotta let Fran go.

But a NCAA win would be better.

 

[HawkeyeWalker]

I'd say an 8 seed given how they've faired in the last month.

Bottom line is "good Iowa" could play with and beat almost anyone...."recent Iowa" is gonna struggle with almost everyone.

Lose to a 10 seed.

Dont want the season to end with 0-1 in tourney, the basketball gods will smile and let us win 1 to give us a brief hope.

But maybe when my wife has Iowa to make the final four, I may actually beat her in the bracket challenge after a 2 year slump.

 

[ClintonIAfan]

Last year wasn't Iowa predicted as a 7 seed before the big 10 tournament too? That is where they ended up. The pedo state game did not affect it. In Iowa's last sweet 16 run they got upset in the first round too. I don't think today hurts this team that much. They were predicted as 5 or 6 before I don't see that changing. They still have a lot of very high quality wins and that makes a bigger impact on the committee than conference tournament upsets.

 

[mopkins]

7 seed.

Current 10 seeds are the likes of: South Carolina, VCU, Cincinnati, Temple, St Bonnie, Oregon State, Butler, Pitt, St Mary's.

I'm not sure which of those teams I think Iowa could beat. It would be a nice large FU losing to Butler...Fran and Iowa would come full circle...prying Lick away from Butler, then firing lick for Fran, then losing to Butler.

Think I'll say 7 now. Unranked as of the start of the tournament.

 

[QuadCityHawkeye]

7 and they will lose to a 10. Book it. This team has no heart.
