Bracketology 2015...

Most recent bracketology I'd say ISU has a great chance at an elite 8, possible final 4 run. Match-ups most likely being Round of 64:Iona (easy win)
Round of 32: Providence (should be easy win)
Sweet 16: Gonzaga (Tough game, but think Gonzaga's overrated)
Elite 8: Utah/Duke (Not really sure on this one, could go either way)
Final 4: Virginia (Most likely where Iowa State would get bounced)
Obviously that's not how the bracket will be set, but nothing wrong with getting excited for this teams potential come March.

Lunardi's latest. Has Iowa State as a 3 seed vs New Mexico State. I'd be satisfied with this bracket.

Elite Eight? Don't count your chickens before they are hatched bud! The higher we are seeded the bigger the target on our back. Let us just take it one game at a time. Don't want to get gut punched in the 1st round.
Note on Lunardi's Feb. 5 bracket, now that I've examined it — other than being placed in Louisville instead of Omaha, that's as favorable as ISU could expect right now, as a 3. Nobody truly scary or infallible in that region. It may be the most difficult 14 to draw, with exception of South Dakota State. Possible second-round rematch w/ Arkansas.
Does Lunardi use RPI or BPI for his brackets? I'm trying to understand why he put Purdue into the field. I guess bad power conference teams start to sneak into the field when conferences like the Mountain West, A-10, and WCC struggle to produce anyone but 1 or 2 good teams in a season.
Other than Virginia, but that wouldn't be until the Elite 8. And I'd rather face Virginia than Kentucky.
Switch Wisconsin to Louisville and ISU to Omaha. Both locations would have better crowds that way.
