JP knows all the secrets of the NET and now the committee seeds teams but missed the part about how scheduling no one in the non-con and having a 300+ sos non-con will fck you.
That said how you're team is playing now (conference tournament) should matter a whole lot more than how they played 4 months ago. Especially in this NIL transfer era.

They are going to F a team like ISU no matter what. This non conference bs is just the excuse they are using. If we had the #1 OOC schedule it would have been some other made up nonsensical reason.

 

[CapnCy]

As much as I want drake to lose first round, part of me would also love to thump them.....Andy Fales would be insufferable if they win.

 

[cycloneworld]

Yeah, I would not want to face Izzo 2nd round. Much rather have wsu or drake

All of the talk is about a potential Drake matchup but WSU is much better. I like our chances against either.

 

[carvers4math]

Between Drake and CC, not turning on a local station for a week unless our game is on CBS.

 

[Clonefan32]

Just can’t bring myself to get too worked up on draws. Upsets happen every year. No one has any clue what our path looks like and it only matters when we take care of business. And if nothing else this gives TJ a little fodder to play with a chip on our shoulder. I love it.

 

[Marcelason78]

Whar K State?

First 16 out.

 

[cyclonestunners]

Some of you guys are crazy. We really that terrified of Drake? I’d take our draw all day.

Someone doesn't know tourney history and the common result of "team gets to play team that refuses to play them in the regular season"

 

[ClonesFTW]

Big 12 totally hosed all around.

Kansas got a helluva nice path for a 4 seed.

 

[FriendlySpartan]

We got shafted, pure and simple. City-slicker, media types simply don't like the Cyclones. Only one thing to do:

Just win, baby.

How did you get shafted you have a cake walk till Auburn/Uconn with your defense? I’m super confused on the negativity

Yep. Hell, I won't listen to Iowa Everywhere.

With the #1 OOC we would've lost too much. Can't make them a 1 seed.

Probably the best approach

Right now just win 2 in Omaha..

 

[FOREVERTRUE]

Read the room? You have a super easy path to the sweet 16? And a pretty good option through the elite 8

I am not worried about it but putting us against teams that are the same distance if not closer in the first 2 rounds and in a region with 3 other teams that absolutely dominated their conference tournaments

 

[CycloneErik]

Only Big 12 Team to potentially face a conference foe before the Elite 8.

Is BYU allowed to play Morehead?

 

[cycloneworld]

No one is purposely screwing ISU or teams like ISU…jeez. If we had gotten the #1 seed, we’d have to go out West with Arizona as the 2. Not easy either.

I am 100% sure this team doesn’t give a **** about draws and they’ll be ready to go.

 

[jdoggivjc]

Our fan base got a nice head start on tickets though

Not exactly my point. Drake and SDSU are already well enough aware of ISU and aren't going to be quite as shellshocked as other 7s, 10s, and 15s would be.

 

[Marcelason78]

Feel bad for Indy St.

 

[danvillecyclone]

So the winners of
Big East Tournament
Big 12 Tournament
Big 10 Tournament
SEC Tournament

Are 1-4 in the East.

OK. What the ****!

How did you get shafted you have a cake walk till Auburn/Uconn with your defense? I’m super confused on the negativity

South Dakota State is peppered with people that have coached with or know our coaches well. So they'll know what we are going to do. That's a disadvantage for us.

Drake will be annoying because the media in this state will act like it will be great no matter who wins and that's not the kind of vibe I'm going for.
