Just got a boost in the polls. Up to #12 in AP.
Tough turnaround for Iowa, lose a gut punch on Sunday late afternoon on road. Fly back to Iowa City (which would depress the hell out of me) and then back at it Tuesday night.

Also in the above scenario of IU winning the B1G tournament, they absolutely would be a #1 seed.

Woooohoooooooo!!!!!!!!!!
Great game last night! Really thought they were going to blow it there late, but Iowa gave it right back to them. Really happy for Yogi! Now let's go beat Maryland.
As far as seeding for the NCAA, after seeing the rankings, if IU beats Maryland and wins the B10 tourney, there is no reason that IU couldn't be a 1 seed come the NCAA. Here's why they won't be tho, Michigan State.....we know that the selection committee loves them and the national media loves them. They deserve some of the respect, but honestly they haven't had that great of a year and look where they are ranked. Kinda ridiculous! In the end, I think MSU will be a higher seed than IU, regardless of how IU plays here on out!

I concur about the game, and to think that was done without two starters. OG and Morgan are something else.
The thing about MSU is how many of their losses came when Valentine was hurt? I think the committee wil take that into account. Sparty also has a shot to finish in sole possession of 2nd place and it is a pretty good one. But there is no way in hell that if IU wins the BTT that MSU should be seeded over them in the dance.
I agree, but if this plays out like IU fans hope it does, I think MSU will still be a higher seed. The only way I don't see that happening is if the Hoosiers win the B10 tourney and MSU losses the 1st game!
Hopefully Morgan doesn't miss much time, that looked really bad!

As an ex-Indiana resident, I think I'm going to have to root for the Hoosiers now that my Cards won't be in the post-season. Surprisingly, Crean's done a great job this year. This team's a lot of fun to watch.
Any word on Morgan? RoJo?
Also, i was wearing an IU hoodie yesterday here in South Korea and a korean teenager on the subway pointed to the IU and told me he likes Yogi. So theres that.
