1 and Done. Thats of course after taking a 14 point lead and letting it slip away late in the game.

Done first weekend. And these last two games, regardless of outcome, won't change my mind.

First round bounce. NO way this team has shown any intestinal fortitude this season to go any further. There is no leader on this team and we have too many wanna be all stars thinking of themselves. Said that early in the season and got ripped.

I can absolutely see 4-seed Iowa State running into a 13-seed that can shoot it well from three, and losing while the other team shoots 55% behind the arc

Unless they turn it around fast, this year is reminding me so much of 2001, I'm doubling up on the nut cups this year. Solid season with a bad finish to the conference season. I'm getting prepared for a first round loss. We'll probably be the 5 that loses to a 12 this year. And to make it all the worse, it will probably be Iowa that beats us.

Iowa State losing to Stephen F. Austin (averaging 78 points a game) wouldn't shock me at all.

I picked 2nd round, losing to a 5 or 6 seed.

Good call. I thought I was safe with my nut cup this time around, but this game broke right through it.

I said second round. We'll look great in the 1st round and **** all over the 13 seed we play and do the same at the start of the game against the 5 seed we play, and then we will just stop playing again and lose the game.

I'm still thinking Sweet 16 or Elite 8 depending on our draw. At this point we don't appear to be quite as good as last year and if Niang didn't get injured last year I think we could have advanced further than the Sweet 16.
