And Iowa and Illinois both as 8s.
They both lost in the B1GT to lower seeds. We won against a higher seed (who was also a 9 on the Matrix).
Will that help Sunday? Maybe. More likely if we take care of the Gaggies, who are currently a 6 seed.
I know you believe our cake is already baked; you may very well be right on that.
But it’s still fun to hope that a deep SECT run combined with “bad losses” by teams just above us could get us off that dreaded 8/9 Line.
