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

Just gotta find that January magic again.

Iowa made their bed. Time to sleep in it

/thread.

Most accurate thing that's been said in quite some time here.

 

[docholihawk]

Iowa at a 7. Time to prove they can beat good teams again after a disappointing end to the season. We have no excuses going forward and no right to complain about seeding.

 

[FirstDownHawkeyes]

I like iowas matchup with temple and out of all the probable 2 seeds I guess villanova is probably fine...

Absolutely agree Iowa made their bed and deserve a 6 or 7 seed. They do NOT, however, deserve to travel over 1000 miles and a time zone as the higher seed to play a team that is less than 2 hours from their campus. THAT is BS!

Hawks have a chance to beat the Danny Manning Kansas highest seed (6) to win championship.

 

[leiserom]

I was at the Temple Houston game a couple of weeks ago. We can definitely beat them. UH basically let it get away from them

 

[PCHawk]

Duke has 10 losses too and is a 4 seed.

 

[joker]

ISU with 11 losses is a #4.

What a joke. Hope they get their ***** handed to them. That team doesn't play as one.

 

[joker]

Bracket has been leaked online for quite some time already

 

[ClintonIAfan]

This is a bunch of garbage. However the team will use this underseeding as motivation and come out fired up.

 

[DDThompson]

Iowa better get some Philly toughness real quick.

Welcome home Fran!

Dont lose 6 out of 8 to end the season and lose to scrub teams with below 500 records. If Iowa beats Penn State and Illinois we no less than a 5...

You're right. If we don't lose to those 2 teams, we have a WAY better resume than Duke and are still one seed worse.

 

[DDThompson]

Don't know what y'all are drinking to think this is a 7 seed team but it is making you loopy. No way is this team higher than a 9.

Wrong

 

[DDThompson]

10 seed and they should feel LUCKY to even be in the NCAA

Feeling stupid!

Iowa is 20 in kenpom, 28 in ESPN RPI.. That seems like 6 territory to me.

I know the last 10 isn't supposed to count anymore, but the committee is human. Subconsciously, it might still have an effect. A 7 wouldn't totally shock me.

I don't normally quote myself, but seems I was pretty much spot on.

The Big 10 in general got hosed, though.

I figured a 6 and possibly a 7. But I had forgotten how weak the field is this year until seeing the brackets. We pretty much had the exact same resume as the 4 seeds.

Let me guess you refer to yourself in third person.

No doubt other than Kentucky all the other 4 seeds have double digit loses. They didn't even get to the conference tournament final.
