Longer run in NCAA tourney?

It will heavily depend upon the draw for all 4
I feel ISU women are stuck somewhere between a 7-9 seed. If this go right for these last 3 games and in the Big 12 tournament I could see a 6 seed.
If they can’t get a 6 seed I see our ceiling being the round of 32.

I don’t think Nebraska is all that good. They will probably win their first ever NCAA game this year, but expecting a R32 exit.
I thought last year showed quite a disparity between higher and lower seeds athletically and from what I've seen Nebraska would be the exception to where it might almost be surprising if they didn't struggle in the first round.
Of the 4, it will probably end up being Miami. I feel like they all have the same ceiling. One and done territory.
I am not anti-Hoiberg (happy to celebrate what he did when he was here as a player and coach) but the narrative as Nebraska being the only Power 4 school without an NCAA tourney is just too fun to let end. I hope for a one and done.
Do you mean floor? If we get a 6 seed, I like our chances. With Addy back, we feel like a 3 or 4 seed in sheep’s clothing.
Each seems like Round of 32 ceiling.
Taking into accounted anticipated seeding, Nebraska probably has highest expectation to advance to second weekend.

It is very strange for Iowa mbb and tourney run to be in the same sentence. I guess now that McCaffrey is gone it's possible they could win a game or two. Not something anyone has even really had to consider in a very, very long time.
Realistically, I don't think any of the 4 make it out of the first weekend, but it all comes down to matchups.

Just going off what they should be seeded, Nebraska. They'll likely be around a 4 seed. ISU women sound like a 7 seed, so winning a 2nd game will be tough.
No. if we get a 7, 8, or 9 seed we will play a 1 or 2 seed in the round of 32 I don’t think we beat any of them.
If we get a 6 seed (which I don’t think is likely), we probably have a decent chance against a 3 seed.
I quickly read and assumed Iowa State men and wandered what everyone was smoking. Then I went back and read more carefully. Yeah, definitely ISU woman in that list.
