Whatever one seed has UConn is going to have a much harder chance to make the final four than Iowa. 🤷‍♂️

Hey guys - LSU has to go through UCLA first
good catch i assumed since both were in albany they'd be playing each other.
Kansas State being the 4 in our region is straight intentional bullsh**.
Well, it doesn't matter in the Final Four. You are playing a good team there no matter what.
Wow, Columbia is in as an at-large from the Ivy League.
The men's tournament would never...........
The men's tournament would never...........
They're really making it hard to advance to the final four. While SC has a cakewalk to the final four. Oh well win and advance.
The good thing with Iowa is that CC's supporting cast is playing their best basketball right now...Martin/Affolter/Gabby/Hannah.
I would rather be in #2 Ohio State's shoes with #1 USC, #3 Uconn & #4 Virginia Tech (their star player is injured)
Iowa got screwed
Iowa got screwed
Iowa absolutely screwed by the committee. Complete BS. #2 overall seed and they get the toughest bracket.
OBVIOUSLY, no one on here thinks Iowa is good enough to get to the finials. How's the saying go: TO BE THE BEST YOU HAVE TO BEAT THE BEST. Chill out people!
When will dates and times be announced?

Hey now, they got Notre Dame who is led by a tiny freshman who is really good at getting steals.............................
Any word on Molly playing? I like how the recent starting lineup has performed but it’s always nice to have another fresh pair of legs.
I mean they are the overall number one seed by a mile so they should have the weakest number two seed which is Notre Dame. Southern California will have to beat UConn (maybe OSU) which is much tougher than UCLA/ LSU. Texas will have to beat Stanford which is a much harder order than LSU/UCLA.

Ohio State has the toughest road by far of any one or two seed to reach the final four. And it’s not even close! At least Notre Dame will play Oregon State in the sweet sixteen. Ohio State will have to play UConn and then Southern California.

LSU / UCLA have to play each other, so Iowa can only play one of them. I don't like K.State as the four. Iowa is a much better team now than the one that lost to K.State at the start of the season,
What day is Iowa playing? Can't believe the selection show is omitting the day of these first round games.
Was surprised LSU and UConn were both 3 seeds... Kim NOT happy
Well…all teams we can beat, but lots of very intriguing teams in there. If I counted correctly, we have 9 of the top 26 Net teams in our bracket and that doesn’t count a very tricky Princeton @ 31st or Drake again …🤷‍♂️
Matchups:
8 West Virginia- been a dangerous and scrappy team in the B12 all season
9 Princeton- potential Creighton type trap game, so regardless we're not getting an easy 2nd Rd game.
Winner of Colorado/Kansas State- either a team we beat last year that returned most of their players and wants revenge, or a team that we've played twice this year and makes life really difficult for us because reasons.....bullsh**.
Winner of LSU/UCLA- Because we had to have the potential Angel Reese vs Caitlin Clark matchup because ratings. UCLA was always the plan for the 2 seed. It was just a matter of who else would fill out the bracket.
Also, Gonzaga being a 4 seed and getting to go to the 4th 1 seed in Texas is horsesh**.

Not a bad draw for Iowa. I’ll take it. K State at the four will be a little harder than some other four seeds.

I think we are a match-up nightmare for LSU this year so hopefully they take UCLA down.
To be fair, the other teams are probably saying shit, we have Iowa in our bracket.
Probably cause former nebby AD trev Alberts left for A&M. It’s no coincidence.
It is what it is. Just win girls. It’s a new season, one game at a time. Go Hawks!
