    First Bracketology of the Season

    Joe Lunardi's first Bracketology of the season is on espn.com http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/bracketology

    Predictions that don't mean anything yet but fun to look at.

    He's got...

    UNI at a 7 seed playing 10 seed Notre Dame
    Creighton is the only other MVC team at an 11 seed playing 6 seed Wake Forest(Creighton is also under the heading "Last Four In")
    Iowa's a 6 seed playing 11 seed Vanderbilt
    Iowa State's an 8 seed playing 9 seed Washington

    Wouldn't that be fun to see UNI lay a whipping on ND. Especially after watching Digger and his LOOK AT ME I SUPPORT ND TIE during the selection discussions.

      We could buy him a purple tie, he'd find a purple marker to wave around, and we could cram them both straight up his rear.

      I don't care what we're seeded (okay, I do a little bit), where we play, and who it is. I want to beat someone in the NCAA and play in the second weekend.

        Just think only a couple of more days and we can talk about something involving basketball other then preseason predictions! I seriously envy all of you that get to be in Des Moines for the tip off. Should be a great opening to "UNI's most highly-anticipated men's basketball season ever" (www.unipanthers.com).

          Oh, and I'm all for shoving anything up of Digger's arse.

          What a fitting 100th post, me bashing ESPN commentators just like in 97 of the previous 99

            with the Irish in the big east...i doubt they will make the tournament this year. i like chris quinn, but i don't see it happening unless that conference gets like 9 teams in...

              FYI...in that bracket, if UNI won in the first round, and upset #2 OU in the 2nd round, there could be a Sweet 16 matchup with Iowa.

              Granted, that is a totally hypothectical bracket.

                Wouldn't that be something sweet to see. Can you imagine the hype in this state over something like that. One game at a time.

                  It would be fun, but rarely would a real bracket end up like that and I'm not sure that Iowa will be in the tourney to even get a chance to play UNI.
