Lunardi has us as a 4 in Seattle. GROSS

He sucks tho.

Firmly believe we were a 3 but the more Wisconsin and Maryland win the worse for us.
IMO Wisconsin will need to win today to jump us. We have a better resume.

I think it's easy to drop us to a 4, they just say the injuries and then Wisconsin stays home. We should be a 3, so I'm expecting them to give us a 4.

Weird that anything in these tournaments could affect our seed seeing how last year our winning did nothing to help us.
Don't fall for the hype. Bracketologists need to have something to keep people engaged right up until things get announced. It's been well established for quite a while that tournament play doesn't affect things unless a bubble team moves pretty far along and earns a stolen bid on a week bubble. There's plenty of evidence that they mean next to nothing for the top seeds. ISU shouldn't be affected by any of the tourney games left, but the flip side argument is that it's important to remember we all have a nut cup for a reason.

The Des
Bracket matrix has us as the 3rd 3, fairly comfortably (average of 3.14 vs the top 4 at 3.79).

Does the committee reach out to JP to gauge how serious Gilbert and Tamin’s injuries are? They have done this in the past.

Weren't we told last year that conference tournament results didn't matter for tournament seeding? I'm pretty sure we were told that.
Yes. But it’s also the B1G… I think seeding is pretty much a wrap after last night though.

yeah, I see CBS also drop ISU to 4. In a losing trend and Limpsey, Gilbert is not clear to play. I worried that should bring enough doubt for committee to drop
