Virginia had to win the play-in game...won that...is a 10 seed. Just beat Iowa in double OT after being down
by 9 mid-4th quarter. Huge upset. Conceivably they might meet South Carolina in the final 8 game.
Would they have a shot in that one? If so...a darn little one.
 
Iowa as a #2 seed was misappropriation from the Selection Committee in the first place. Virginia is on a burner.
It would be interesting to have a follow up conversation with the committee chair to hear their thoughts at the end of the tourney.

This year, we can't say upsets are rare however. We're getting some entertaining games this weekend.

If a selection committee ever punishes a power conference for eye tests that do not match cpu ratings, it will not be the big ten.

When I'm in a mood, I mutter to myself that upsets are just seeding errors. It's not always true. But this year it seems to be true more than I'd like.

Nah, Iowa deserved a 2, they were just a weak 2. There's a big fall off from the top 6 to the rest of the field.

I have no problem with Iowa being a #2, they definitely deserved it. It's just that Duke should have been the #3 paired with them, that's my issue.
