I know it is still early, but Ken Pom has all 10 Big 12 schools in his top 35. There are only 4 Little 10 schools( out of 14) that make the top 35. Right now the last bracketology has 8 Big 12 and 8 Little 10 schools in the dance. The Big 12 is essentially crazy good, actually dominating Mens Basketball. Iowa is currently 52 on Ken Pom, so if the last 2 in the Big 12 can not make the dance, Iowa should never even be considered.
