Agree. Currently #55.
Memphis and Creighton might flow between Quad 1&2 in short-term.
That is another nice feature of that site. They show the criteria, record in each Quad and games remaining in each Quad along with your team's critical data. https://bracketologists.com/team/iowa-state-cyclones
I know he mentioned having an after dark pod about it in the podcast. He likes to have intercourse!
For comparison here is Iowa
You can see ISU has 12 Q1 games left, Iowa has 7. B1G being weaker has many more Q3 games (5 for Iowa vs 1 for ISU). ISU actually plays two more Q4 games (9 vs 7) but Iowa's Q4 teams were much lower in the Q4 (OOC SOS 216 vs 99)
Looking at Iowa's Q1 schedule, they may not win a single one. Right now, Utah State is their Q1 win but they are barely hanging on in Q1. If they slip 6 spots it becomes a Q2 and Iowa could end up 0-10 in Q1.
Love Cdub but damn, that guy misses a lot of work. Would definitely NOT want to be his employer.
The fact that ISU has 17 Q1 and Q2 games left is absolutely insane. That could change easily (TT is #30) but even if we end up at like 15 Q1 and Q2 games that's just every game being an absolute banger the rest of the season.
It's been hard for me two get to games this year (two kids playing basketball, winter soccer, and one wrestling) but I truly hope I can get up there for a lot of these games. The Big 12 this year is just the best and deepest conference I maybe have ever seen since I've been following this closely.
We have two different 14's and two different 35's hanging in the rafters. Four players, two numbers.
Double edged sword. Lots of tough games but very few opportunities for bad losses. Win the majority at home and pick off a few on the road and they're good. Easier said than done.
