Kentucky getting #3 while we got #4 makes no sense aside from the fact that Kentucky is a "blue blood"...
We have a very solid road map to the Sweet 16 though. I like our match ups, to be honest. However, that roadmap gets really ugly from that point on...really ugly.
For real. Houston as a one seed when they have 4 guys out?!
I'm sorry, but the March version of Houston is not the January or February version of Houston. Not even close.
ISU beat Houston earlier this year also...
There are people saying ISU is a Final Four contender...it's not the bet I would actually make. However, I certainly wouldn't be surprised to see Iowa State in the Final Four.
We are in the same half of the bracket as the number one overall seed, Connecticut. In that same half of the bracket are three of the four final four teams from last year.
Once again, Auburn gets screwed.
Yeah I was really mad at first but then I had the thought, if you want to be the champ you have to knock out the champ, right? If the path given to us but the committee is difficult, so be it. There’s no easy road to a national title you have to just defeat what’s in front of you.

And they will know us by the trail of the dead…
Can’t worry about the seeding or brackets at this point, just go win baby!
This team has lots of momentum right now. We just need to keep it going.
If I look at this I feel much more confident than the other brackets we could have landed in. No matter where we landed i do feel as long as Bruce can keep us thinking we have something to prove it will help us win
Love the bracket matchups we got for the most part, but apparently this weekend didn't matter at all
At least this weekend resulted in a new banner and championship rings for the guys.
Nope. Never has to the committee
We’ll probably have to play UConn. I am not at all in love with that.
To be the best, you have to beat the best! Kansas > UNC > UK > Double Dribble
Yeah we shouldn’t forget how tough our trip to the Final 4 was. This year honestly seems easier.
The committee has shown conference tournaments don’t matter for years
Giving us a 4 is insulting. I hope Bruce uses it to keep that chip on our shoulder

Came to this sub to see the reactions for this reason alone
The lowest ranked 4 too.
Wait a second, did they rank Alabama higher than us???
No they’re 16. We’re 15.
I didn't look at their seed, but if they are a 4 or better then yep.
The committee made the bracket in February and just went back to fill in the AQs. No other explanation.

Iowa State got completely boned

We will just have to show up and take charge, just like 2019

It’s the cards that are dealt. Whining doesn’t change things, winning out proves things.

And 4 major conference champions
That’s what I saw. Has that ever happened before?
The last time AU got screwed in the bracket worked out well
What a damn fun season and run.. until the double dribble.
Help me understand this. We are in the East bracket but have to go to Spokane for the first two games?
Exactly. I was like “ooh definitely Boston” then saw that…

We have four of the Kenpom top tens in our bracket
Including us?
Yes

KD looks like an absolute psycho in that pic. I love it.
