Teams in the Tournament that Iowa could beat 3 of 5 times on a neutral court?

Iowa was 5-10 against teams that made the tourney. Congrats on going full RATARD!

If you are going to quote stats like you are a smart guy then you should at least post the W-L of all 11-13 seeds that got in for comparison to our W-L record to make a valid point.
 
There is no reason to believe Iowa can beat a decent tournament team away from home. It's one of the big reasons why our name wasn't called today.

Thats simply not true and is why Iowa is ranked much higher in the modern computer rankings vs the antiquated RPI

Iowa certainly showed they can lose on the road but they played both Minnesota and Wisconsin to a one possession game on the road and had the lead with under 30 seconds in both.

Iowa simply did not have many realistic chances for quality road wins out side of those two. We played mostly poorly ranked teams, although in reality Purdue, Nebraska, and PSU would spank those garbage mid major bubble teams that got in, and then top ten teams.
 
Couldn't beat a top-four team in your own conference, yet you'd "take down" all these tournament teams, most of which finished in the top two or four of their respective conferences? GoHawks123 was right. You are delusional.

Iowa beat the 4 best teams on that list.

5th place team in the big ten was a top ten team in the country and could easily win the national title.

Intellectually dishonest arguments are stupid.

OSU, UM and MSU would all win the majority of the other "major" conferences in the country. The only ones they wouldn't be locks to win would be the big east or ACC.

We didn't beat anyone good (NCAA at-large worthy) or even mediocre (NIT or CIT worthy) away from Carver. Unfortunately games don't end with 30 seconds left, otherwise we would be playing in the NCAA's this week. Based off the results this year I don't see any reason why anyone would believe we could beat most of those teams listed on a neutral court. We don't win away from home.

And I already explained to you why you're wrong.

Agreed. That's why the thread should have ended after one post.

I think the big has five teams that would be at the top of any conference in the country. Indiana, msu, meechigan, isu, and wisky. And our next tier is only one possession away from them in most cases.
