Yeah, I'm thinking that playing the likes of Wisconsin really helped a lot. I'm hoping that Iowa State is looking over UAB and will be caught off guard.

Kentucky's game is in Louisville too, so we better get tickets from our allotment ASAP. As for the draw, I think we got the best 3 seed, which means we were likely seeded as the weakest 14 (which is fair).

I bet Kentucky bought up all the Louisville tickets months ago. Cincinnati is almost playing a home game as well.

****! Iowa state is tough. I would rather play Kansas. But we have to win the rebounding battle and the TO battle to have a shot.

I bet with both Kentucky and Cincinnati in Louisville, we will be a daytime start.

RE: 14-seed UAB vs 3-seed Iowa State
They did lose at Texas Tech by five points. That was probably their worst loss of the season. They went 25-8 overall, and 12-6 in the Big 12.

However, they just beat Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas in the Big-12 Conf. Tourney.

They currently have a five-game winning streak.

One thing UAB's players must keep up is intensity of play. If we take a "swoon" for 5 minutes - as we have in some games -, we may be in the parking lot when we awaken.

It's been a while since this Blazer team has been blown out. And quite frankly I think we are a much different and better team since some of those blowouts.

A loss wouldn't shock me, but I think we have a shot. And I don't expect us to get blown out. I do not think Iowa State will take us particularly seriously.

Glad we got the 14 seed. Gives us a decent chance to win. 5 of the 40 14 vs 3 games in the past 10 years have resulted in an upset. We got this 03-wink.

I think we have a shot and got a break on the location so we'll actually have some fans there. Based off this past week, we are playing our best basketball of the year right now.

Iowa St posters have already linked this thread to their main board.

They are already saying we're disrespecting them.
