Correct. I should’ve added what I said earlier.
Path matters. Don’t run into a team that is supposed to be a higher seed.

With losses to UCF, WV. Understand the committee rewards good wins but you cannot completely ignore bad losses either.
Just keep doing what we're doing. Not too worried about brackets yet. Still lots of games left to switch things up
The only thing they can say against ISU vs KU is non con SOS. To be fair they’ve been fairly consistent at using that in seeding, but on our behalf we played in a decent non con tournament this year
I don’t mind being a 2 or 3 seed so long as they play in Omaha
Important to remember this week's games did not count towards todays reveal, i.e. Kansas's 30 point loss to Tech and our win vs Cincy and now Tech aren't considered. So Iowa state is a 3 seed with a 18-5 record in the committees eyes today.
This is all meaningless until Selection Sunday anyway. All I’m taking from this is the committee has interest in us, even if us being behind KU and Baylor is WTF.
F em all. Seed us as a 16 so we can piss in someone's cheerios
I don’t want to get ahead of ourselves, but Jess Settles said during today’s game that Iowa State can play its way to a 1 seed. Which is true. How awesome would that be. Would likely mean we won the regular season title and possibly the conference tourney as well.
On a side note, I hadn't paid close attention to Settles in previous broadcasts, but was a bit more tuned-in for today's game. He's knowledgable and provided solid analysis. Knows nooks-and-crannies/details of Big 12 and each team equally today (including specifics about the players). Hate to give a Hawkeye credit, but fair is fair.
Settles has had time to study up on each of the Big 12 teams because he's only taking 12 credits this semester.
You can tell he really tries to do his homework unlike a lot of them. That's all I ask for personally
UNC, KU, and Alabama higher than I would of thought. Unfortunately, KU just filled the hole in their resume with a Top 40 road win at Oklahoma.
Wisconsin is probably closer to a 6 seed than a 4 right now. Compete free fall.
Yeah, nothing makes me tune out an announcer faster than listening to them give insights that show they know nothing about our team
The NCAA revealed its first Top 16 earlier today on CBS. ISU is currently seeded 11th. I found it interesting that last year's four number 1 seeds remained the same from the first reveal to Selection Sunday. Hopefully ISU can throw a monkey wrench in things with a win on Monday night.
