      Paradoxically the most “normal” year was 2020. Tom Brady and Lebron James both won championships. Alabama won another football championship over Ohio State and regular season powerhouses Los Angeles Dodgers and the Tampa Bay Lighting both won their championships. With the Dodgers facing the Tampa Bay Rays another regular season powerhouse and the Lighting facing the Dallas Stars,
      If anything the most unusual part was Tom Brady winning a Super Bowl right after changing teams, both NHL teams coming from the former Confederacy (Which never happened before) and of course no crowds.

      Also the Blue Jackets finally won a playoff series in 2019 when they unexpectedly demolished the Lightning -(My sincere condolences to Winnipeg Jets fans, especially since the Thrashers never did anything for them to fall back on.)- Forget that, the Jets also won a playoff series, and with both the expansion Golden Knights and Kraken already winning playoff series in their first two years, now all 124 teams in the big four leagues have moved on at least once.

    You've missed a glaring reason as to why the 8 or 9 gets an easier team in the Sweet 16 than the 4 or 5. Because to get to the Sweet 16, the 8 or 9 has to have BEATEN the no 1 in the round just before, so they will never play the no.1 in the Sweet 16. Look at the statistics for the Field of 32. I haven't seen them, but I can almost guarantee that the 8 or 9 team has the worst winning percentage in that specific round because they always play the no 1 team.
    The whole tournament is specifically designed so that the 1-8 seeds make it to the Field of 32 and 5-8 get knocked out, then 1-4 make it to the Sweet 16 and 3-4 get knocked out, etc. Looking at the winning percentage of a certain placed team in one specific round is always going to give you these sorts of statistics.

      Yes but thats in theory what they want to happen. Almost every year at least one 1 seed falls to an 8 or 9 seed since their the Cinderella of the tournament. By having them play a more equal opponent in the sweet 16 rather than reseeding it gives the allusion of hope. Before losing to a 2 or 3 seed in the elite 8.

The reason why the worse seeds fight the better teams is because it rewards the better teams for doing better in the regular season AND it stops teams from losing intentionally, example lets say that if you used the logic of if you beat the number 1 team you become number 1 so you lose intentionally to become 16th seed even though you are nowhere near a 16th seed, hey now all you gotta do is beat the number 1 seed and you have an easy road. This is why reseeding is necessary.

  • @chitown9614
    @chitown9614 6 лет назад +375

    The reason an 8/9 plays a weaker seed than the 5 in the sweet sixteen is because they already beat the 1 seed just to get there. They played a stronger seed in the round of 32. They’ve earned it haven’t they? Now you reseed and make them play a 2 seed the very next game?

    • @erpmario
      @erpmario 6 лет назад +61

      Yup, that's what you do. That's what the NFL does too. If the #6 seed beats the #3 seed, they face the #1 seed. If you want an easier road, you should do better in the regular season.

      Yeah, no. You can have your opinion on whether basketball or football is a better sport, but the March Madness system is objectively flawed and worse than the NFL's playoff system. *Both* are flawed because they are single-elimination instead of a best-of-X series, but March Madness is more flawed than the NFL. If you perform better in the regular season, you should be rewarded with an easier road to the championship. If you sneak into the playoffs as the bottom seed, then you should have the toughest road since you clearly weren't definitively a playoff team to begin with. This is a meritocracy, folks. If you're better, you're rewarded. If you're not, you're not.

    The problem with basing the argument on the fact 8th and 9th seeds do better in the sweet 16, is that you're pre-selecting for teams that necessarily already played and beat the 1 seed. So that means that they're better than the average 8 or 9 seed, and also that they already have had a harder route than most teams.

    Some important notes, per chart at 5:10 - In 33 seasons, there are 660 seeds 6-10 and 128 made the Sweet 16, giving them a 19.4% chance of getting there. In 33 seasons, there are 396 seeds 3-5 and 174 made the Sweet 16, giving them 43.9% chance of getting there. And to make the Elite Eight, it's 7.4% for seeds 6-10, and 15.4% for seeds 3-5. Considering the average seed of seeds 6-10 is 8, and the average seed of seeds 3-5 is 4, you'd expect around half the chance of seeds 6-10 making any given round vs. seeds 3-5. In fact, the actual odds, as shown above, are LESS than half as good for seed 6-10 to make either Sweet 16 or Elite Eight than a seed 3-5. This does show that talent is just a slight bit top-heavy, which to me is unsurprising.
    All this chart shows is that IF....and it's a big IF....IF a team seeded 6-10 makes the Sweet 16, they have slightly better percentage odds of winning THAT PARTICULAR game than any seed 3-5 in a Sweet 16 game.....but they make it so much less often, it doesn't even make a significant dent in the overall odds of making it to the Elite Eight. It's definitely a parity-booster, as evidenced by the slightly better relative odds of seeds 6-10 vs. seeds 3-5 in making the Elite Eight vs. the Sweet 16 (19.4% / 43.9% = 0.44, 7.4% / 15.4% = 0.48).

The reason I don't like reseeding if someone won more games than the other team doesn't mean they are better. If curry and Durant go out for half the season and end up the 7 seed and win they could be the best team but they hurt the 1 seeds chance now how of good to the wcf because of reseeding. Seeds don't tell the whole story of everything that happens. You give this "reward" to a team for regular season success but it doesn't mean much. Just going with the seed is a lot clear and a whole hell of a let less confusing to casual fans. Ncaa is a lot different because if a player gets injuried they don't come back most of the time. Since it's the way it's been it's better to not mess with the system as if you do and it backfires it's worse than what you had.

      Best team winning every single team is why the NBA playoffs are so frequently considered boring. There's zero element of chaos to add challenge to the best teams so the best team almost always wins. First seeds win a good 3/4s of the time. Only two teams below a 3rd seed have ever won the nba title. This is why the mlb playoffs are so fun and the nfl playoffs. NHL is also fun since the best team almost never wins (the presidents cup curse).
      The best team winning in the nba isn't so bad if it feels competitive but it hasn't for a long time as a whole so nothing feels truly fun about the nba playoffs. I haven't watched since the Warriors won their first ring. I skipped all but the finals of next year and skipped everything this past year. Chaos is fun.

    The curious thing for me is the 10/11/12th seed increases in win rate in the round of 32. The 10th seed has to beat the 7th seed to advance to the round of 32, then will face the 2nd or 15th seed. Since the chart shows how low the win rate for the 15th seed is in the first round, it will be almost always the 2nd seed. Yet somehow the win rate for the 10th seed actually increases against the 2nd seed.
    Meanwhile, a 14th seed team has to beat a 3rd seed to make it to the round of 32, then faces a 6th or 11th seed, yet the win rate decreases for this 14th seed from the first to the second round.

      I think, it's usually because which teams actually get the 10-12th seeds. Usually 6-8th seeds are at large bids for schools from larger conferences that barely qualified. whereas 10-12th seeds are schools that are conference champions from mid-smaller conferences that had a strong season. So 10-12th seeds are usually very capable teams, it's not as large as a opening round upset as the seed line suggests.

    Just an update at 0:36. The Winnipeg Jets not only won a playoff series, but made it to the conference finals. The Columbus Blue Jackets shocked the world by beating the Tampa bay lightning in 4 last year. Lastly, the nationals not only got their first playoff win, but they got a World Series. So, officially, every team part of the four major sports have won a playoff game. 122/122 teams are winners in a playoffs game. Makes the NCAA look worse 🙂

    As a tennis fan this is child’s play from my perspective. 4 times a year I watch a tournament with 3 round of qualifying and then a 128 man tournament, with no reseeding and only 32 players that are seeded at all. And at the end of it almost every one for over a decade has been won by one of the same 5 guys.

    • @SwAeromotion
      @SwAeromotion 3 года назад +1

      Being pedantic here, but one can technically lose in tennis and move on. There are "lucky losers" in Major qualifying that move on to the Major itself despite a loss in the qualifier.
      Also, if one looks at the results of women's Majors in tennis you'll see a far greater number of winners.

      @@SwAeromotion Lucky losers are mostly for filling spots left by people who drop out before the first round, something that doesn’t really happen in team sports. The point about women’s tennis is fair though, a lot more diversity in who makes it far/wins (Raducanu my absolute queen)

    Swiss system is pretty good.
    I made a 256 double elimination bracket seeded the same way the March madness tournaments are and progressed the bracket with the ruling that the lower number would always win.
    Obviously this leads to seeds 1 and 2 playing in the winners and grand finals. Also seed 3 plays seed 2 in the losers finals.
    But certain seeds made it much farther than they should have so that the top 8 contenders weren’t actually 1-8. I believe 64 was somewhere within the top 8.
    It’s even worse when you put them in a row 1 plays seed 2 round 1 and 3 vs 4 and so on. This lead to top eight for winners side having seed 128 appear.
    The point of these was I was seeing how accurate tournaments held in the FGC (fighting game community) actually are to showing who’s a better player (ignoring the paper rock scissors aspect of it all) because I’d seen a few top 8’s with some questionable match ups going on...
    Also found that best of (insert number) for a match in a set that’s best of (insert number) sometimes makes it possible for the loser to have more wins than the winner.
    In street fighter if you do a set of 3 matches and each match has 3 rounds.. the winner has to have won 4 rounds (at the least) to have one. The lose can have won 4 rounds at the most and still lose.
    Match 1: 2-1
    Match 2: 0-2
    Match 3: 2-1
    When it turns into best of 5 matches (as it does in the finals) still with the best of 3 rounds for each match the loser can actually win more rounds than the winner.
    Match 1: 2-1
    Match 2: 0-2
    Match 3: 2-1
    Match 4: 0-2
    Match 5: 2-1
    This is 6 rounds won by the winner and 7 by the loser... which leads me to believe in that situation the losing player is actually better.... I get why it’s done in such a way, because of things in the game like meter and time management as well as character selection, pacing etc... still seems a little sketchy when the loser wins more than the winner.
    Same with a best of 7 in a basketball tournament if the losing team has scored more points.
    I’m not yet familiar enough to racing to know for certain how the point system works, but I do believe it’s designed in such a way that points are awarded each lap based on position, there’s point for the fastest single lap, then points for the end race position that carry on for the next race in the cup so that by the end of the cup all the stats are combined to determine who was actually the best racer.
    It could potentially be someone who never finished above 10th place simply because all his stats combined ends up with his average points per race being higher than everyone else. I need to watch racing more...

  • @goonerbear8659
    @goonerbear8659 6 лет назад +9

    A couple of thoughts:
    On the percentage of teams who have never won in the playoffs since 1985:
    There is no mechanism to enforce parity in the NCAA. Players are free to go to any school they can get into. North American professional sports have rookie drafts and spending restrictions to manufacture parity. While some teams become dominant for a time, that comes from having the best managers of rules and limited resources.
    On reseeding:
    This would cause more travel. That's enough reason for schools to not want it. Say you're the 10 seed, you beat the 7 seed in Dallas, everyone else in your region goes chalk. You suddenly have to catch a flight to LA to play the 1 seed because you're the lowest seed left. Meanwhile, that 8/9 seed who won their matchup has to catch a flight the other way to meet the 2 seed in Dallas. Only a few schools would be secure in their travel plans. Pro sports reseed because of their desire to confer advantages on teams who did better in the regular season based on objective criteria. The Tournament brackets are built on opinions and rules that restrict who plays whom and where and the madness that ensues is a feature the NCAA markets. The Tournament can (and this year, did) let in an 18-14 school on a 4-11 skid based on perception of their conference and not weighing the 4-11 late-season spiral and turn their noses up at a 27-5 school because they're aligned in the wrong conference and didn't win its postseason tournament.

  • @TheGiantsfan100
    @TheGiantsfan100 6 лет назад +1

    The brackets are made so lower seeds have it easiest and therefore a high seed who beats a lower seed inherits the easier games that were set up for the higher seeds. While middle seeds face each other often less likely to win someone they are more equal to. (Far from a perfect system, but chaos is why we love march madness)
