But he also puts us as an 11 seed which is on the border and bid stealers or other bubble teams doing well in their conference tournaments could come into play and make us sweat. He’s also employed by the Big Ten. We also don’t know how much the actual committee members will look at our bad NET. We dropped to 76 overnight and a 1 point win against Penn State won’t result in much of a bump. Iowa has a great NET so at least a potential loss wouldn’t drop us too much. Of course if we win ANY game in the Big Ten tournament we have to be a stone cold lock I would think.

Personally, one more win would sure make me breathe a little easier

Eleventh seed is due to the NET. I don't think you need to worry about bid stealers because they are not leaving the 4th place B1G team out of the tournament when RU has like the 10th most Q1 wins in the country.
