IOWA is the #5 Seed in the Midwest (CHICAGO) Region. Will Face #12 Seed Richmond on Thursday in Buffalo, NY. Tip: 2:10 pm CT. TV: truTV
- Thread starter Franisdaman
- Start date
who do you have winning each of the Midwest Region's games?
I really want to see Wisconsin get upset so they don't make it to Chicago. Can you imagine the price of tickets if Kansas, Wisconsin & Iowa make it to the Sweet 16?
@ssckelley , where are tickets available for Chicago?
i think the games for getting to the Sweet 16 are very favorable
and then playing in Chicago would be favorable....as long as Kansas and Wisconsin are also not there LOL
Just went to YTT and customized the channels carrying the games.
CBS
TruTv
TBS
TNT
CBSSports
All are at the top now. I'm ready!

Holy crap, who woulda thought that Dickie V would be driving the bus on being bullish about Iowa in the NCAA Tourney this year?!
As an aside, I was cruising the webz earlier, checking out 'expert' predictions on the bracket. Aside from some dummy who picked PC over Iowa in the 2nd round, it would seem most feel the "floor" for the Hawks this March is the Sweet 16, with a few Elite 8 picks and most have Iowa in the Final 4.

I hate Wisconsin with a deep irrationality, but nothing would be sweeter than getting vengeance for the L in Madison in January by beating them in Chicago, in the Elite 8, to go on to the Final 4.
I don’t know what to make of Wisconsin’s pod. LSU defends like crazy and is athletic as hell, but their coach just got fired. ISU is pathetic on offense but can play great defense too.
Doesn’t matter, Auburn is gonna blast whoever.

I view it a bit different. Yeah you just ran 4 straight days, but sometimes if you draw the body down for too many days in a row, you lose the pace. They will be feeling just fine by Wednesday & ready to go for Thursday's tip. Want to keep that button hot.
Shoutout to @MrsScrew. Congrats on the Knights getting to the tourney. You can relax now.
First of all congratulations to all of you for winning the B1G tourney. In each & every game you guys absolutely proved you deserved to be the winners.
Thank you for the good wishes. I wish we had actually gotten in instead of getting an at large bid but we are very happy to take that beat Notre Dame and head on to San Diego and do what we can versus Alabama.
6 years ago we were literally the worst team in the Big Ten. If you count what would have likely been an invite in 2020 but didn't come because of the pandemic, Steve Pikiell and this team have gotten us three bids in a row. Not too shabby.
Good luck going forward in the tourney
Milwaukee would have been nice.. ISU gets Milwaukee and a LSU team in turmoil without a head coach. How in the hell did LSU get a six seed? They tanked the second half of the season similar to ISU. I guess the committee had sympathy for them, because neither team deserved what they got. Every 8 and 9 seed in the tourney is better than LSU.
I like your chances against Alabama, the way you guys guard and have guys that can get you a bucket when you need one! Best of luck against ND!
I'd like to see the entire Big Ten make a good showing. It's time to shut up the naysayers that keep reminding us how the Big Ten did last year.

too bad Dick has us losing in the Championship game
I hear you. The only issue is that those bastards will be after tickets, along with most likely Kansas and Iowa fans, which will drive up ticket prices
Actually, Rebraca and Kris Murray were in fouls trouble in both half’s and Fran’s restrictive 2 foul rule required both Ogundele and Mulvey to play.
without foul trouble, it’s doubtful those to get anytime.
but as you can see, “pushing the Ogundele button” was a very good thing, ( not that it was planned )
Pike has done a remarkable job. I really believe that the COY and POY awards in the BIG should be decided at some point after the conference tourney. For us, we have waited for something like this for a long time. Finally, it happened.
Thanks for your well wishes, and good luck to you and the Knights as well! Will be watching! Yes, Rutgers would probably been a lock. Tough team. Who knows? Maybe they can go far in this!
