I was wondering if Iowa would knock MSU down to Quad 2 after that huge blow out. Although that point differential is probably what moved Iowa up to 18 since it improved Iowa’s defensive rating.IOWA (#18 NET Ranking on Feb 23)

I just don't see Iowa being a 9 after last night especially. Put Michigan States resume and Iowas next to each other and Iowas is better with a head to head victory last night. Iowa is the 7 and Mich. State at this point is an 8.Bracket Matrix, which currently combines the results of 132 brackets, has IOWA as an 8 Seed.

Yep, beat Nebraska and PSU at a minimum and get 1 or 2 in BTT and we are definitely off the 8/9 line.I just don't see Iowa being a 9 after last night especially. Put Michigan States resume and Iowas next to each other and Iowas is better with a head to head victory last night. Iowa is the 7 and Mich. State at this point is an 8.

Yep, NW it was thanks!The only thing I can think of for why we are getting dinged and considered an 8 or 9 seed:
* Just one Quad 1 win
* #328 Nonconference strength of schedule (out of 358 teams). MSU's, btw, is #60.
BigO, instead of PSU, I think you meant N'western.
Iowa is 19-8, 9-7. With 4 games to go and based on how Iowa is playing, 22-9, 12-8 seems possible.
I just hope we can get to that 7 seed or better.

Was thinking Sparty was Quad 1 win however they are 35 and for home games that needs to be sub 30 for NET.The only thing I can think of for why we are getting dinged and considered an 8 or 9 seed:

They were 28 heading into last night but that pushed them down to 35.Was thinking Sparty was Quad 1 win however they are 35 and for home games that needs to be sub 30 for NET.
yeah, still a good win neverthelessWas thinking Sparty was Quad 1 win however they are 35 and for home games that needs to be sub 30 for NET.

So, Mich St. could still move back up to q1 for us, correct?Michigan State
It’s nice to see Izzo struggle a bit but yes they can move up. I would imagine he will rally the troops down the stretch.So, Mich St. could still move back up to q1 for us, correct?

Possibly, but just remember that they have now lost 5 of 6.
MSU (now #36 in the NET rankings) quickly went from 17-4 to 18-9. They are not playing well. At all.
MSU's Remaining Schedule:
HOME vs Purdue (#10 in the NET Rankings)
at Michigan (#33 in the NET Rankings)
at Ohio State (#19 in the NET Rankings)
HOME vs Maryland (#95 in the NET Rankings)
Totally agree. Just checked the NET at NCAA.com and saw Houston at #4. They do not have any Q1 wins. 0-3.What's interesting is that we could have had up to 4 more Quad 1 wins if these 4 teams had not struggled so much:
You sure that‘s been updated? I would think Ohio State would move up after upsetting Illinois on the road last night.Iowa should have another Quad 3 win tonight.

I’m a Debbie Downer today. Hawks win by 8 in Lincoln. Probably drop 2 spots in the NET ratings.
Oh how I’d like to get another shot at Tennessee.
They will have to win their tournament won't they? Don't think they would get an at largeNorthern Iowa would be interesting as well
