Self only made one right?  Weber only one right? I don't know the answer but this may be special.

Losing to Iowa with a Final 4 on the line would kind of ruin the golden era for me. Can’t let that happen.

We’ll still be the only school to have won bowl games and ncaa tourney games in men’s and women’s basketball the last two years!

I will be happy with a Championship and ONLY a Championship. No stinking Elite 8 Participation Trophies allowed.

It's weird b/c being in the Elite Eight is a major accomplishment and the max of what anyone could've rationally expected in September, but losing to Iowa in a 3 vs. 9 game with the Final Four on the line would be as big of a nutpunch as the Loyola game.

I told Judy (RIP?) and PAMan this morning, there’s no team I’d hate losing a Final Four berth to more than Iowa. Will be just a bit sweeter even should we win.
