They were mediocre the rest of the year. Had they finished 2nd or 3rd in B1G they likely would have been on the 4 line like IU. IU was 12-8 in conference. Illinois was 11-9. So, one extra conference win was worth 5 seed lines? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illini had a much easier conference schedule. Also very weird in that we only got 1 Q1 game at home (when you guys destroyed us). So that 11-9 didn't really help the resume much.

IU Scott Posted March 19, 2023 Report Share Posted March 19, 2023 28 minutes ago, 5fouls said: It's already hurting seeding, which, in turn, is hurting the performance. Otherwise, why were 12 loss TCU and Iowa State teams given 6 seeds while 11 loss Maryland and Illinois put on the 8/9 line. It was not the case this year, but in future years, that could be IU on that 8/9 line while a middling Big 12 team gets a 6. And, when that happens, IU fans will care. The seeding this year has nothing to do with past performances. They look at every teams resumes and don't even look at conference affiliations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone else is happy with IU being the Gonzaga in a WCC-like Big Ten, then that is their prerogative. I just feel differently. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SawatchHoosier Posted March 19, 2023 Report Share Posted March 19, 2023 (edited) I don't know about you all but can you guess where I'm headed when this game is over? I'll give you a hint; it starts with R , ends with S and it's a type of bleacher. Edited March 19, 2023 by SawatchHoosier 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look I’ll give you a line…maybe should be an 8…maybe we should have been a 5 (it was a possibility). I just don’t see any B1G schools with agregious seeding mistakes.
