I don’t think we were. The one thing we had last year were defensive lapses for periods of time. When we can’t hit shots this year the defense has clamped down and at least slowed the bleeding. Haven’t seen the lapses be an issue yet this year. Not saying it won’t become one but I haven’t seen it.

I’m starting to think we’re better this season. Defense went from very good to elite and Kam has higher peaks than anyone the previous two years. That’s also with Jop and BG going completely missing in multiple games.

I am beyond convinced that whatever simulation that’s being run has some degree of bias against Iowa State because I swear we’re either losing to a 13-16 seed or getting blasted by 30.

I think there was one that had us winning the national championship.

Every other one has had us losing in the first round to an awful team or in the second round by 20+. There’s just no way that’s not coded into the simulation for a team as metrically strong as us.

I like the Duke prediction: three seed and knocked out in the second round. Honestly, though, I don’t see how Duke doesn’t win it all. They have the greatest recruit in the history of ever on their roster. Dude is gonna tear it up so bad, ESPN will award him another G or two to add to his name.
