For discussion purposes, let's pencil in Iowa State as a 2 seed. Build your region from there. What teams do you want to avoid? What teams would you like to see in our bracket?
Personally I'd love to see Gonzaga or Nebraska as the 3 seed in our region.
Gonzaga plays in a soft conference. Not battle tested. I really like that possible sweet 16 #2/#3 matchup.
Nebraska's offense depends on timing and rhythm. You aren't going to play in rhythm against our defense. Im not sure Nebraska has the playmakers in their backcourt to handle our pressure.
Im torn in regards to the 1 seed. Michigan and Duke both lost guards in their rotation to season ending injuries. Is Florida proven (I know they've been racking up wins in the SEC)?
I'd sign up for Florida as the #1 and Gonzaga as the #3 right now.
No potential matchups against in-state foes UNI or Iowa please. Just don't need that whatsoever.
