PSU the #10 seed in the Midwest Region. They'll play #7 seed Texax A&M on Thursday in Des Moines, IA
Yeah with Indiana a 4. We beat ‘em twice.
10th seed is a big time screw job. Indiana #4? Seriously.
That's a tough seed for PSU. TAMU was #2 in the SEC. And the winner of the PSU - TAMU game will likely play #2 seed Texas in R2.
Tough and very predictable. Illinois will probably be a seven seed or better
They had to have made these selections prior to the conference championships and been imbibing ever since!

The good knews is they appear to be a Guard oriented team. They don't appear to have an overpowering Front Court which has been our Achilles Heel this year.
I’ve heard the competition for that seed was murder.

I don't think this match-up is all that bad. They play 3 Guards and 2 Forwards. Their Forwards are 6'8" and 6'9" and both average under 10 pts a game.
I am of the opinion that name recognition in Basketball contributes to the seeding.

Yeah I think they got hosed a bit.
Hosed…should be no surprise. I am sure Big10 lobbied us for Dayton or NIT.
Indiana seeded 6 rungs higher as 4seed! Why? Big10 screw job.
It's really been just a big misunderstanding.They shoot well.
Makes me happy though .. can’t stand them haters
They have Indiana as the 15th ranked team. PSU 38th.
It appears that the Big 10 Tournament wasn't considered at all. I guess it didn't happen.
Rutgers was like 46 and sPitt gets a play in at 67.
