I’m telling myself anything better than a 6 is probably out of the question. If it happens great but just not seeing it. And I would be thrilled with a 6 honestly.

I don't want to go to school today, Mommy.
Iowa State has 8 Q1 losses, 5 of which are Q1A. 0 in Q2, 0 in Q3, 0 in Q4.
Iowa has a Loss in every Q. 6 in Q1, 1 in Q2, 1 in Q3 and 1 in Q4. They are an equal opportunity loser.
Of the remaining games, Iowa has twice as many out of Q1 as they have Q1 games (2 in Q1, 3 in Q2, 1 in Q3).
5 of 6 Iowa State remaining games are Q1

Definitely out-gunned in conference play. Thankful that reinforcements are en-route:
This is all you need in Goodman's newest 25, five of his top 11 are from big 12.
What I don't get about the NET right now is the Big 12 is clearly the most difficult conference yet you have teams above them like St. Mary's, UCLA, SEC teams etc. Just seems odd. Houston at #1 with only 5 quad one wins and a ton of wins, 10 against really bad opponents just doesn't seem right.
I just remembered this but I think one criticism of NET from guys like KP was that the efficiency metrics they are using are adjusted efficiency. So that probably explains it.
9-9 seems really likely now. I’d have still signed up for that at the beginning of the year.
This is how I see it playing out... I have KU beating OSU tomorrow, if that were to flip, we then fall to the 6 line and play KU in round 1.
I'd rather play Kansas than OSU in round one at this point
I'd like to not play OSU for awhile. The games against them the last couple years have been miserable other than Brockington shooting out of his mind in Stillwater last year. It's not even that we lose against them, it's just the games are hard to watch
I'd watch OSU vs ISU on a loop for a week rather than watch us play WV ever again. Compared to WV, the Cowboys are a ballet troupe.
They're #14 on Torvik and #18 on KenPom.
I don't think #19 is unreasonable.
There's no shame in losing to WVU on the road and only a little shame losing to OSU at home.
The Big 12 is getting its just respect for once.
And still #16 NET .... the only thing that "truly matters" ... although it's good to be ranked consistently -- more attention, better perception, all those things.
ISU hasn't "looked like" a top 25 team too often for the past couple of weeks. But I try to remember, it's possible to cherry-pick a 5-game stretch by just about any ranked team throughout a season and find some clunkers.
