"i'll probably be working, actually, and doing something that might help us win the game instead of something that doesn't matter too much right now.""i've got night class, so i won't even be able to watch it." "we'll meet until 6:15, but i'll go home, hang out, watch some tv and go to bed." "i'll probably see. i'll watch espn. i'll watch sports on nothing else to do." but since the only rankings that really matter come out at the end of the season, the focus is less on what indiana. "that doesn't really matter right now. we just have to focus in on one game at a time and just keep preparing every single week. right now in our eyes it's a one game season. we're just focused on indiana." "as much as it is nice, you have to take it with a grain of salt and understand there's a lot of games left to be played." "i can almost guarantee you the four teams in it tonight aren't going to be the four teams in it in the end. they try and predict stuff since the beginning of the season and most of it's been wrong.""the only thing i'm hoping tonight is we're not in the first four. that's like the kiss of death. i don't think we have to worry about that. the biggest thing we can do to help ourselves right now is win this saturday. that's really what we're focused on." while it may sound like the hawkeyes are trying everything they can to avoid talking about rankings, the team is happy to be mentioned among the big dogs of college football.
