This is why we needed the #7 Seed

Minnesota up 7 on Michigan with 5 to go. Minny winning hurts our NIT chances too.

IMO Beating Minnesota a third time would not have been easy.

Gophers blew it at the end. Just like they did 10 other times this year.

Iowa is a better overall team than Minnesota. I hope the NIT selection committee sees it that way...

Agree. There are 2 teams in the big 10 Iowa absolutely cannot matchup with, Ohio state and Michigan state. Iowa would've beat both Minnesota and Michigan. That NW loss was a killer. would've been nice for the Hawks to get to the semis.

Yeah I was saying the whole time...Iowa HAD to get on that side of the bracket in the 7 slot to realistically have ANY shot at going on a run...MSU is on an entire different level right now...Izzo is the man in March.
