ESPN came out with the first installment of its Power 16, including IU as the No. 9 team in the rankings. Michigan State is one spot ahead of the Hoosiers at No. 8 - I wonder if the people who voted in the poll saw MSU lose to Division II Grand Valley State last weekend?
Joe Lunardi, ESPN's resident "Bracketologist", predicted the Hoosiers to be the No. 3 seed in the South Region of this season's NCAA tournament. Again, did Joe see MSU lose to a Division II school, having the Spartans slated as a No. 2 seed.
Zeller announcement coming up in five minutes, an update will be up as soon as possible.
