Iowa St.
Steve Prohm has taken Iowa State to the NCAAs in three of his previous four seasons in Ames, earning a No. 4, 5 and 6 seed. I'm a bit higher on the Clones this season than most, but don't expect them to get into the Big Dance with such a good seed. There are a lot of talented point guards across college basketball, but few will have as much responsibility or direct causation for their team's success like Tyrese Haliburton, whose sophomore-season breakout we should all see coming from 20 miles away.
The rest
2. Iowa
3. Northern Iowa
4. Drake

Won't Drake be better than UNI again?

Only two sources I have at my immediate disposal have UNI slightly ahead of Drake.

Athlon: MVC pecking order, (3) UNI, (4) Drake.

CBS 1-353: (131) UNI; (153) Drake.

Wow, Missouri State is #1 in their state. SEC! SEC! SEC!

Saint Mary’s for CA? I respect what they’ve done but how pathetic for the major universities in CA

Gophers holding strong up north. Impressive.

Hmm...they pick Nevada and Alfraud over UNLV & TJ -- it will be interesting to see how that plays out.

UNI is better than Iowa. Real bounce back year for UNI to the level we're used to seeing them at. Finally healthy and in a good place.
