The Fran fade


Bracket Matrix agrees with both of us on the 4 seed. I just think WV and Texas Tech jump Iowa
I wouldn't be shocked if Missouri or Tennessee is below the 3 line also. It can already be difficult to interpret what the committee is going to do but this year it's even tougher. First 8 in this seem locked in at the 1 or 2 seeds. Moving to the 3 and 4's is a lot more difficult
 
They have one win against teams that will be ranked next week (at home vs Purdue). That is assuming Purdue beats MN Saturday, else that one goes away too. If that happens, they will have no wins against teams currently ranked.
Minnesota just knocked off Purdue.
 
So if they were a 5 seed last year in the mid 30s they should be a 1 or even 0 seed at #8
Well, no lol. NET rankings aren't a direct correlation to the seed you get. Iowa is not a 2 seed right now even though their NET ranking is 8.

Yep, probably a three or four seed now. If they keep slipping, I would take a 6 or even 7 seed over a 4 or 5 seed.
