Yikes, just checked Vivid Seats and lowest priced tickets are mid $300s.
Yup and there are probably some fees added to that too. I got 3 seats 3rd row in 212 for $312 a seat plus fees around 5:15 today. When I search for 3 now it's $394 row 10.
If you have not bought tickets for Omaha yet may not hurt to buy now. I bought an all session pass on StubHub right after tipoff tonight and the cheapest upper deck seats are already going nearly $100 more a seat now for an all session pass. Guessing once it's official and game times are announced the ISU session on Thursday will be crazy high so I'm betting on what I paid for 3 sessions is still significantly less than what the Thursday ISU session and Saturday would have cost separately.

I figure Drake and/or Nebraska will be placed in Omaha too so I'm going to enjoy watching every game there. Luckily have family that lives in Omaha too so saving on hotel and plan to make this a fun 3 day trip.
So somehow the tickets I bought were row C and when I go to claim are now row M. Is there a way to file a claim with StubHub as that are not the tickets I thought I bought

I'm not going to say I will be disappointed if we aren't the 1 seed tomorrow but it's starting to feel like wheels are in motion for it to happen. Once the committee guy said their were 3 teams in play for the final 1 seed on CBS this morning I think bracketologists realized ISU might be one of the 3 and decided to look beyond our NCSOS and really started to dig into our resume. Throw in beating Houston by almost 30 and UNC losing to 14 loss NC state and here we are

I think Iowa State jumps to the #5 overall and gets shipped West as the 2 seed to Carolina's #4/1 seed. Basically a co-1 seed situation.

That's actually the dream scenario for playing the 3rd weekend.
This would not be a bad situation at all. First two games in Omaha, then the weakest 1 seed of them all way out west and hard for either fan base to have a huge majority.

The worst and unfair situation would be if ISU gets put into UCONN's bracket. The best 1 seed (UCONN) should not be paired with the best or second best (depending what the committee does) 2 seed. That would stink. UCONN has Boston and they will flood that place just like they did New York the year we lost to them in the Sweet Sixteen in NYC.

Correct. It's not fair to UConn either.

2 seeds for me-
East-Tennessee
Midwest-Arizona
South-Marquette
West-Iowa State
