People have been saying this the whole damn tourney when the top seeds have been losing. It makes no sense.

Everyone said how easy Kentucky had it after all the top seeds lost, well look what happened to them.

Obviously those top seeds that have it so easy ARE THE ONES LOSING. Villanova could be one of the same.

I got a guy in our work bracket that picked 3/4 that made it yesterday, only FSU he didnt have. Then has Kansas, Duke, Nova and Arkansas(out obviously). Legit chance to have 6/8 of this elite 8 is nuts. Then has Kansas St, Michigan, Nova and Duke in final 4 and Duke Michigan Final with Duke winning.

The 1986 tournament was wild as well.

2 #14 seeds won, which was unheard of. The East regional semi-final (Sweet 16) had a #12 seed, a #14 seed and a #7 seed along with #1 Duke. The #14 (Cleveland St.) lost a chance to go to the Elite 8 by one point.

The Elite 8 matchups were: 1 v 7; 1 v 6; 1 v 11; 8 v. 2

LSU was an #11 seed but got to play the first two games at home. They beat #6 Purdue in double OT and then #3 Memphis St. on a buzzer beater. They then beat #2 Ga. Tech and #1 UK in Atlanta to become the (then) lowest seed to ever reach a Final Four and is still the only team to beat the #1, #2, and #3 seeds in their region. LSU's run essentially moved every game in the future to neutral sites
