A 1 seed....just cuz it's fun

"Season sweeps of Michigan State and Purdue? Our ranking of Iowa as No. 1 seed is not too aggressive. If the Hawkeyes hadn't blown a 20-point lead and lost by one against Iowa State in Ames back on Dec. 10, they would be making a push for the top overall seed. They have another big game ahead this week against Maryland in College Park."

The funny thing is, imo, this team is better because of that loss to Iowa State. Almost like they were sick of that happening over and over the last few years. Uthoff has not stopped being aggressive, Jok and others have taken their games to different levels.

Agreed.
 
I hope we keep this up; can you imagine being a 1 seed in the Big Dance? I think a 2 seed was our best ever, correct?

That is correct I believe. I think I saw Iowa has been a #2 once and Iowa State has been a #2 twice. Neither has been a #1.

I think so. 2 seed in 1987. I don't believe Iowa has ever been a 1 seed. They certainly haven't since then. 3 seed in 2006 was the highest since '87.

Unfortunately I will always remember where I was for that #3 seed game...Study hall on a fuzzy TV in high school
