***Official 2026 NCAA Tournament Thread***

Who have we beaten other than Purdue and Houston? We have had 2 chances to prove our worth against an elite team in Arizona and been beaten both times. We aren't the program you think we are.
we’ve beat 2 of the 2-seeds, along with like 3 other wins over top 5 seeds. We are a 2 seed.

With a healthy Jefferson we’d be underdogs against Florida but you’re making it sound like we’re not in the same league. We 100% are

Florida just got blown out by Vanderbilt less than a week ago. They aren't exactly invincible.
Also have losses to TCU, Missouri, and Auburn. They look good against the SEC and 16 seeds, but past that, we have no data to say they're elite.

So if we are 4 points better than Iowa at Hilton, yet just as good, if not better than Florida, why exactly doesn't Iowa have a chance on a neutral floor against Florida? Because I'm told Florida isn't really anything special. I'm just trying to understand some of your thought process.
