Personally, I am hoping for a 12 seed, against a 4/5 seed TN. Pat Summit is done this year, and I think one of the biggest travesties of ISU WBB is that we have never played TN and Summit.
Not that we haven't had our opportunities: We choked in the 2nd round against BYU in 2002 when we played them (an 11 seed) as a 3 seed. BYU lost to Tennessee at Hilton in the regional semi-final. We also were set up to meet in 2009 at Bowling Green in the 4/5 second round match-up. Ball State came along and bounced the Vols in what had to have been the funnest women's game I've seen in person not involving Iowa State. A side note: when we were in northern California, we went to Sacramento to see Brittany Wilkins while she was with their WNBA team several years back. They had an autograph session after the game which we stuck around for. Brit was at the same table as Kara Lawson, so I got to talk to her. I told her how much we'd wanted to play them in Hilton in '02. She said they felt the same way, that they all (Tennessee's team) wanted to experience what this
cool story. thx 4 sharing. of course a couple years ago I think we would have beaten TN if they had not lost to Ball St. we would have matched up real well that year. even though I have been a real big TN fan since before BF era, I am not a Lawson fan.
