I’ve come down a bit from being overly upset yesterday. I still feel we got solidly jobbed and I’m not happy about that, but it is what it is.
The ultimate goal is to win a NC. Final Four is a great first step, but it’d suck to make it that far only to make it that far. All this seeding does is change where we’d likely have to beat UConn. Instead of beating them in Phoenix, now we have to beat them in their backyard.
That said, if we can go 1-0 we will be favored in every next round up until we ultimately face UConn, assuming they make it that far too. If we can beat them, we are very likely the favorite in Phoenix in the next two games.
So ultimately, all I am saying is, we need to win six games no matter what. There’s a chance we’d be favored in five of the six. We’re one upset and five true-to-favorite wins away. Go Cyclones!
