No Purdue. No UConn. Would love to play Houston since that likely wouldn’t happen until Final 4.
Teams You'd Prefer to Avoid/Play in March

You’re crazy if you’d want to play Purdue as a 1 seed. They are legit.
Who are you responding to? I don’t see anyone that wants to see them in the first game.
Now them getting to the elite 8. Given their history, I would think many teams would like to be in that regional.
Give us any Big 10 team in the sweet 16. I hope to see Wisconsin again lol soft af and would melt them
Would like to avoid a guard-oriented, volume 3 point shooting team (or a volume 3 point shooting/jump shot team in general). You can get behind quick when the other team is hitting tough, contested 3 point shots.
Youd rather have Uconn, Houston or as of right now probably North Carolina?
Agreed. We don’t have a good history with these types of teams. Where our defense is susceptible is the 3 point line
Put me on the side of not wanting to face a team with a bunch of decent guards and 3pt bombers, ESPECIALLY early on if they are a mid-major higher seed, and under no pressure.
Some team that relies on a big but with mid guards? Bring them on. Big will get his, but our holy trinity will turn them over like crazy.

Would love to curb stomp Nebraska and show Fred his mistake
BYU, or anyone like them that can space with 5 guys and shoot threes. I still think we lose to byu in Hilton. Now if we play them straight up we will be fine, but the trapping we do is exactly what they want us to do.
I don’t think Purdue has the guard play to win a title. Not sure we would beat them but it isn’t a horrible matchup either.
There’s not a team out there that this Cyclone team can’t beat, but I’d prefer to stay away from a talented offensive team with a lot of shooters
What? BYU has no chance in Hilton. It's going to be a beat down.
Has anyone actually watched Drake? I root for Drake and attend games here and there- we would beat them by 20.
If nothing changes, Creighton will be good to play on the second day Of a weekend. In the last few games they haven’t had much bench production and have only played two off the bench. Their best players are playing 35 to 40 minutes. They also don’t play much defense.
