Great reads guys...really like the info in reference to different trends of seeding matchups...looks like the #5 vs #12 is upset prone...pretty amazing that a #1 has NEVER EVER lost and went 40-0...porbably cause they are usually favored by 20 or more points..

Totals
In general, the OVER/UNDER Totals posted for the final four
games are higher than most you would see in the regular season.
The reason? As CBS announcer Clark Kellogg put it, you have
to be able to put the ball in the basket to make it deep into the
tournament. Last year’s games produced two of three OVER
plays but in all, there have been 36 UNDERS, 26 OVERS, and 1
PUSH since ‘87.
