zags have only lost 4 times out of 18 times to higher seeds. Seth Curry with Davidson was one and Wichita State was the latest who went on to the final four and had three NBA players drafted from that team.

They are now up 60!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I count five times there (2002, 2004, 2005, 2008, and 2013).

Actually, that chart is kind of damning: they've never outperformed their seed when being seeded in the top half of the bracket (1 through 8 seed) and they've underperformed their seed five times over that stretch (2002, 2004, 2005, 2008, and 2013) when ranked in the top half of the bracket.
