I like playing TTU away later in the conference season. Seems like we're always playing down there early when they still have hope. There's a decent chance they are done NCAA tourney hopes-wise by the time we go down there.
Winning at KU will help in any tie breakers if we split the head to head series with another team.
New brackets are out.

Lunardi's bracket would be the revenge bracket. First game against MSU and Gonzaga, Cincy, and Virginia in the same bracket.
Big week for Miami. They have two very winnable home games against GT and Clemson. A 2-0 week would likely put them in the field and add another good win to our resume.

A win Wednesday night would be rather satisfying. I don't see it happening.
I also see TCU as a really tough game for ISU.
Back to the roller coaster.

Lunardi, um, moved us down two spots to a 9 seed. Playing USC first round with Gonzaga as the 1 seed. I'm not really following what's going on here?

USC at an 8 doesn't make sense either. They have a nice record having played no one in the non-conference and their only good win is at home against UCLA. With a weak PAC-12 no less.
I don't understand what he is doing, either...?
USA today has moved us to a 7 in Greenville against Arkansas. I like it...
UNC as a 2, though..

And Palm took us off his bubble, which for him and his history of dissing ISU hoops was an epic move. We could be as high as a 5 seed now
So in my mind its a wash,
Glad I'm not the only one trying to figure Lunardi out. I don't really care as it will change 20 times between now and the tournament, but dropping us 2 full seeds after a top 50 road win makes no sense.
What is our ceiling in regards to a seed? 5?
Personally, I want to stay away from the 8 and 9 seed. I'll take a 10 over and 8/9

Probably 6 unless we go on a tear. Win the games we should win, and I'm thinking 7.
If we got as hot as possible it would mean finishing 2nd or 3rd in the #1 BPI/RPI conference and making it to the B12 title game or winning it. That's definitely 4/5 range even with the non-conf disappointing games.
More likely that we finish 4th and win 1-2 in the tourney, 6-8 range.
Lunardi is an idiot. He's become famous for doing what 95% of the posters on here that watch college basketball could figure out.
5 is probably right if they finish 5-1 and make the Big 12 title game. 6 is realistic at 4-2 and a win in the tourney.
