Don't get me wrong I'd take it. But how many times would we have to see/hear about Hampton if that was the case? Course that may be a good thing for our players to be reminded of so they don't overlook anyone.

I thought it was Gassaway. Can someone explain to me power ratings and efficiency numbers and how they relate to us winning the ******* big 12 championship

I think Iowa State finished 5th in the Big 12 tournament according to efficiency, darn, I would have liked to win the tourney championship, oh wait....

A lot of our players were 5-7 years old when the Hampton game happened. They don't give a **** about it.

Do you really believe our win over KU would drop them to a three? They certainly have the upper hand, which sux. ISU has really earned the two. They are a hot team right now that knows how to finish basketball games.

Depends on how they treat the Embiid injury. KU is not a 2-seed without him imo.

If we get St. Louis and KU doesn't, there will be a lot of ****** KU fans. The biggest reason is that a bunch of them have already bought tickets thinking that they were guaranteed to be there.

Well maybe some of them will already know some buyers after this weekend

I would love to see a #2 seed but we don't deserve it over the regular season champs Kansas, thats silly.

I think he's smoking something with this bracket, but I have to say I'd love a Sweet Sixteen matchup in Anaheim against Michigan State. It would be a big chance to erase some past demons.

Our non-conference record is going to come up HUGE with the selection committee. They always say to schedule good teams and win against the best. We beat the Big 10 champs and went undefeated against a tough schedule before conference play.

With Palm's bracket it would be us vs MSU in the elite 8(if either team made it that fair).

Now THAT would be prime for some demon erasing...
