Purdue has no past success in Iowa City for a long, long time. Plus Purdue is getting better, but is still a long way from a good road team. Their only road win in the last two+ years in the Big Ten is against Penn St. (Currently 11th). Even when Purdue was a NCAA tournament team (4+ years ago), they really struggled against Iowa. Tread carefully here.
How was your steam plays tonight Iceman?
Iowa wins their last three regular season games, THEY ARE DEFINETLY in the Big Dance........
if - and a big if - iowa wins the last 2 regular season games they are only 18-12 with an rpi of ~60 i'd guess. losses @ Drake and @ ASU are not looking good. what is the highest rpi ever of an at large team? i think i read somewhere it was 51 or something.
i still think Iowa needs at least 1 BTT win to make a solid case.
