NCAA Tournament & the state of Iowa



The thing is, their RPI could actually go up after all of those games.

I would bet on it being flat. Mizzou just lost, and Baylor is at their place, so that doesnt help.

On the other hand KSU's RPI and SOS is rising. KSU gained 13 spots by winning at Mizzou!
Conversely, Mizzou dropped 5 spots.

ISU looks like they dropped 2 spots after beating Texas Tech at home.
 










Stewo. You're in the penatly box.
hawkforlife has it coming. He is shining example of how much BB has meant to the Hawkeye fan base recently. I wonder if he realizes that Baylor has never won in Ames. ISU could lose out, but they should win a game in the tournament, and that may be enough. Who knows, but I feel like ISU gets one of the last 3 and doesn;t have to worry.
 










Not bitter. State just sucks.

I'll be honest, I haven't been impressed with their play for the last few games, but they're still sitting at 20 wins in the regular season for the first time in 11 years. I'm enjoying the crap out of this sucky season.

As long as ISU doesn't get swept in the last three, they should be in.

How could they not get swept? K-State just kicked MIZZ and Baylor on the ROAD... they will chew ISU up and spit them out at home. Mizz is great, smacked ISU at ISU and now they play them on the road. Then finish up with Baylor... Baylor will maul them again. Finishing out 0-3 is rough, but the reality of their schedule. Then they'll play Texas or K-State in round one of the BIG12. No picnic there.

They will be lucky to play NIT.

it's possible they lose the next 4, probably won't be favored in any game, but odds are they will get at least one and be in.
 


They are out. They cannot win against K-State and Mizz on the road.. and they can't beat Baylor at home. They will lose to K-State first round of BIG12. 4 losses in a row.. they are OUT. Sorry Clones.

You have no idea what you're talking about. And then you go on to say that they'll be lucky to make the NIT.. lol. Maybe you should just zip it so you don't make yourself look like even more of a fool.

Very possible but I think we will get at least one to get in. They need to play better than they have been recently though.

U-huh okay.
 


ISU is IN and anyone saying otherwise is way over thinking things OR just Hawk fans trying to incite any ISU fan that is visiting the site. They play in the 3rd rated conference in the RPI and are currently 10-5 in conference. Even if they lose the next 3 they still finish 10-8 and can finish no worse than 6th place in the conference. LOCK!!
