Message: [QUOTE="oldhusky, post: 3763738, member: 9844"] With all the cancelled games and more limited schedules, this year a single loss "could" wind up being a dis-qualifier for a number 1 seed in the tournament. In normal years that wouldn't be true, and it probably won't be this year either, but a few teams could go undefeated with fewer big games on their schedule. It is hard to estimate, but my guess is 3 losses would pretty much rule out a top seed, two probably makes it very unlikely, and it is not inconceivable that one loss for a team not in the Power 5, might leave them outside the top four. That magnifies the significance of every loss, because once you lose one or two, you may not be in control of your own destiny, at least for seeding purposes. You are dependent on others losing to get you back into the discussion for a top seed. [/QUOTE]
