As it stands, Kansas is 6-5 against Iowa State in their conference tournament's history. ISU, however, is 2-1 when they've met in the Conference Championship game, with all 3 games coming down to the wire.
 
At least one team from Iowa is relevant
yeah and that's Iowa has they did beat ISU EARLIER in the season just like they beat Oregon when they were ranked 13th.

ISU enterted the B12T having lost 5 out of their last 6 record now 22-11
Iowa's record 22-11 also Iowa plays in the BT which was predicted before the season to send 10 teams to the NCAAT, this season the BT expanded the conference games to 20 from 18.

now who had the hardest schedule in conference play? not ISU.

WHAT makes this so interesting is that Iowa went from 14-18 4-14 in BT play to 22-11 10-10 BT play and they graduate RSSR Baer a non starter. returning 8 of the 9 scholarship players that played this season.

this the 4th NCAAT out of the last 6 years. Iowa is only going to get better.

How did Iowa fare last night? It’s march and Iowa can’t hide from who they are in march
 
I think Iowa State wins. If it’s still like it was when I lived in KC there will be as many ISU fans there as KU fans. They take over the power and light
 
How did Iowa fare last night? It’s march and Iowa can’t hide from who they are in march
lets look at who Iowa lost to last night in Michigan
2 FF's back to back going into this season
2 BTT Titles back to back
9th straight BTT win the only team to do so since the BTT started

yeah I can see why Michigan had ABSOLUTELY NO RIGHT TO WIN, as Michigan is the ABSOLUTE WORST TEAM IN THE HISTORY OF COLLEGE BB.

STICK to FB as it is the only thing you are good at.
one more thing just when did Iowa reach the level of Duke?
 
This game is tough to watch. Kansas missing Layups and isu missing open jumpers
 
We started off shooting like complete trash last night. Knocked down some quick shots and opened the game up by halftime. A bit different tonight. If we don't find a way to knock down a string of shots, we won't be as fortunate as last night.

Kansas can’t complete a play. They can’t finishe a glass of water offensively
 
They keep talking about Iowa State’s defense. We’ve gotten to the hoop plenty and had plenty of good looks. We just aren’t hitting them. Just one of those games. Sometimes statistics don’t work in your favor.
 
What a shit half.

A clinic for how to miss layups and free throws though.
 
We are literally shooting ourselves out of this game. Fortunate to be down 10 at the half. Honestly the defense hasn't been bad. Our offense is flat out offensive all around.
 
The bad news is we put up a dumpster fire performance offensively in the 1st half. The good news is there is still another 20 minutes to straighten things out. The problem is I don't know how much longer it will be until ISU goes unconscious shooting from everywhere.
 
This KU team is stiff if they don’t make shots. You see it every game. If we make our first few, we’re fine and can compete with anybody. If we start with a lid on the bucket, we never get things going. They all get stiff.
 
We are shooting 30% from two and a huge goose egg from three. Bunch of unforced turnovers. If we just play normal ball we are winning. Kansas is getting beat by Kansas. Getting to the rim at will. And blowing layups. Wide open threes and clanking them.

Disagree about that- you are down 17 at the moment...
