***OFFICIAL NCAA SELECTION SHOW THREAD***

[1hawkeye1]

I'm kind of shocked they considered the last 10 so much. They didn't really care about it last year with Minnesota and I'll take our resume over at least BYU's. I think we got RPI'd again.

Gottlieb ripped on the BYU selection

So Wesnesday and If we win, Friday??

Is that confirmed/correct??

 

[MiniMoeHawk]

Said to say it but ISU has an easy bracket

 

[BigD]

If we get past the play in portion does this mean we are stuck playing a number two or three seed?

 

[kctom]

I don't think they will make it.
Losers of 6-7, and to the worst team in the conference in last time out...

So, if Iowa loses the play in game, they don't make it in to the big dance of 64....

 

[okeefe4prez]

Jacked that we were the last 4 in...such a lock! Maybe we can actually make it into the tournament of 64.

Tournament is 68.

According to the bonus in Fran's contract, it is.

Yeah, that doesn't mean it isn't ********. There's a reason the phrase is "play-in" game. You win, you're in. You lose, and you didn't really make the tournament. The fact that the NCAA chooses not to call these games what they are doesn't change anything.

 

[BigD]

I am at work and have been following every ones comments so I can't see the brackets.

Tennessee beat Virginia by 35 points in late December.

Iowa analysis

 

[okeefe4prez]

Tennessee beat Virginia by 35 points in late December.

We would have beat TN in Atlantis if they didn't gag

 

[glidinghawk]

SMU got hosed.

If we get past the play in portion does this mean we are stuck playing a number two or three seed?

If we beat Tennessee and UMass, we'd likely get 3-seed Duke in the second round.

 

[bcl20]

Everybody on this board thought last 10 didn't matter. Wonder what they think now?

I think our RPI hurt us more.

Well, you said NIT...

I have no problem needing to prove their worthiness. Do you?

 

[thejumper5]

First glance Final Four picks:
Michigan State, Florida, Louisville, and Baylor

 

[1hawkeye1]

Maybe the team can use this as motivation with the "no respect" card...........

I don't know, that's all I got.

 

[okeefe4prez]

If we beat Tennessee and UMass, we'd likely get 3-seed Duke in the second round.

Third round, dude. If you're going to bash Iowa, do it on Cryfan.

 

[ibahawkeye]

Tennessee beat Virginia by 35 points in late December.

We torched Mich... There's a reason they both are in the play in game...

 

[bcl20]

I think our RPI hurt us more.

Louisville's RPI was around 24, which would equal around their surprising 4 seed
