Great to be the 4! but tough tough game ahead! What’s better for resume? 18-13 with a “good” loss or 19-12, with another win…

Go RU!

We would have had to play Iowa anyway as we would have been the 5th seed if they won tonight. So would you rather play Iowa rested or after you had to play a game to get to Iowa while they are rested.... Really stupid post because we would have had to play them anyway as of four or five seed.

Not bad news. Either way as 4 or 5, we would face Iowa. Rather do it with rest and Iowa having to play and win on Thursday with us waiting for them on Friday. That’s assuming Iowa gets past Nebraska/Northwestern winner. Winning on Friday gives us Illinois on Saturday.
Nothing easy
But congratulations to team being 4th seed. Maybe this is year of miracles.

That’s right. And a win vs Nebraska or NW will not mean much anyway….and both are dangerous…it might not even be Iowa that we play.

How do you figure 5 we would face Iowa? You think we would definitely beat Nebraska or Northwestern? Any matchup is very very losable in this conference (Minnesota probably the easiest)

No, we wouldn't have HAD to play them, as we could very easily lose to Northwestern or Nebraska.

Would be great for Nebraska/ Northwestern winner to beat Iowa and give us a chance for a vengeance game with a team that already had to play 2 days in a row. And remember we have already beat teams 1-10 this year.

Best finish than we could imagine after December and January setbacks. Iowa or less. Will take it! Go RU!

That's exactly what I'm saying. We could easily lose to Nebraska OR Northwestern. So no we wouldn't necessarily play Iowa as the 5th seed because we could very easily get bounced on our *** by a quad 3 team and lose even our spot in Dayton.

You are so so so so wrong about this. We want Iowa. Iowa Iowa Iowa. We want nothing to do with some Quad 3 team that can knock us out of even Dayton.

I’d prefer 5 seed due to a Michigan loss, knocking them out of the ncaa field. Iowa playing the day before isn’t a big deal.

What on earth are you talking about? I cannot believe how many posters here have this idiotic opinion.
