No, that's why I'm confused. There is no way that win didn't move us up at least one slot.
I wont count Iowa out yet, but they will have to do some serious damage in the big 10 tournament. If they don't get Gesell back, I don't see that happening
At the opposite end of the S-curve, Miami just lost at home to Georgia Tech (RPI 143 I think).
Any hope for 1 seed probably out of question.
That's a 2-seed type team I wouldn't mind facing if ISU could get into a subregion as a 10 ... potential to get steamrolled but also seems to have vulnerabilities.

UCLA loses to Washington State. This probably won't affect them too much as they swept Arizona and have way too many quality wins, but that road loss to a now 3-14 Pac-12 team is still puzzling.
Same with Minnesota losing to Nebraska on the road. The Huskers are improving, and Minnesota is still fine right now, but still surprising.
Miami likely eliminated themselves from contention as a #1 seed with that loss to Georgia Tech at home.

Ummm no. Majorly devalues one of their better wins. That does not make the Nebby loss any better.
We are no longer on Lunardi's Last Four In. Lunardi has us in the Last Four Byes with Colorado, Virginia, and Villanova.

ISU not in the updated last 4 in by Lunardi. Temple, La Salle, Boise State, and Tennessee. ISU is probably an 11 seed when he sends out a new bracket tomorrow.

Last team with a bye.

You called it!
(it was easy since your choices were (1) called it or (2) called it

Returning to seriousness after my joke-post — good call.
Nudging ahead of La Salle and Boise is a good step up — an advantage of getting a team like OSU ... Even if both those teams had beaten a high-end team in their respective conference, it couldn't have provided the same degree of boost.
It's almost to the point where I hope ISU plays well, but doesn't play well enough to get to a 9 seed. Any non play-in game in the 10-13 seed (edit) area would be awesome right now. You're gonna play a toss-up game regardless. Might as well not play a stud team if you win.
