I am guessing the later game since we would play the 2 seed, or does it depend on who wins?

Anyone know the answer to when we would play on Monday? 6 or 8:30; or does this depend on who wins?

The first of those two conditions is the most important. If we are the #1 team in the nation but Iowa makes the tournament, we will not play in Iowa City. If we are a decent team and Iowa doesn't make the tournament, there's a real possibility of ending up in Iowa City. The other nearby(ish) possibilities if we don't play in IC are Michigan State, Notre Dame, and Ohio State.

If I had to guess, I'd say the earlier game, since ISU and our potential opponent play the earlier pair of games on Saturday.

Also, the Iowa Events Center website says the Monday games are at 7 and 9:30. Not sure which is correct.
