NCAA Seeding

Why not? Drake is the host and the committee allows non-conference rematches (but tries to avoid them).
Technically, the committee can rematch a non-con matchup in the round of 64, but only if they have to. They won’t do it just for yucks. That chances of it happening are less than 1%.
Lunardi's last bracketology has us as a 7 seed in Columbia playing Seton Hall. Would have a 2nd round matchup with Duke 
My prediction for Iowa State seeding:
Loss to Baylor = Top 7 seed
Win Baylor, drop K-State = 6 seed
Loss in the Big 12 championship = last 5 seed
Win the Big 12 Tourney = best 5 seed
Loss to Baylor = Top 7 seed
Win Baylor, drop K-State = 6 seed
Loss in the Big 12 championship = last 5 seed
Win the Big 12 Tourney = best 5 seed
I would bet they get a 6 with their resume and strength of schedule. Some idiots are sliding them down to a 7 or 8 based on the last couple weeks but that is now how they pick seeds.
I don't think we will win another game. I'm not worked up about the seeding though.
TOE shouldn't even be in the tournament. Maybe a play in game scenario for them at this point.
LOL Palm has Iowa State as an 8 seed but still has Iowa as a 7... He is seriously terrible at his job.
If the Pac 12 wasn't hot garbage they wouldn't be in the filed right now.
Unless his job is to pump up the Big Ten (and I seriously think it is).
Someone has to predict that we will win to be interested in what seed we are? That makes no sense at all.
I think it’s perfectly reasonable for a mock draft expert to have us as a 7. Net raking has us at a 6 and they aren’t just going to go down in order picking teams.
I'd rather be a 6 than a 5 TBH. I'm convinced the committee tries to keep the 12 vs 5 upsets going as much as possible (or at least make them more competitive than they should). Plus, with a 6, you avoid the 1 Seeds for as long as possible if the team catches fire. Would rather go 11, 3, 2 than 12, 4, 1
He has never been relevant and has minimal qualifications for his job. He’s a joke.
But if we aren't going to win another game, the seed doesn't matter, right? Hell, if we get a 6 or a 7 seed with as garbage as some of you seem to think we are, then you might have to accept that we weren't a terrible team.
I don't know seeding/location rules so not sure if this is possible, but sign me up:
