To be fair 2009 was a really successful tourney run when taken in context. Played probably 2 of the best 4 teams in the tourney and went 1-1. Beat a butler team that made the finals the next two years with pretty much the same players, and was the only team to play with UNC for a full 40 minutes

Truth. That team in any of the other three brackets would have had a helluva shot at going deep.

14 appearances is relevant enough to justify the historical perspective. Lets see if the trend continues either way.

How in the hell did LSU get stuck playing that very good 2009 UNC team when they were a 4 seed that year?



they were in the 8/9 game with Butler. UNC was a 1 seed

Pretty much this way for any NCAA team that has been in the tournament many times even Duke, Kansas, etc...
