Message: [QUOTE="OttoinGrotto, post: 5244448, member: 297"] Just to get back to this, because I think generally we're in agreement just have some different thoughts on how to solve some of these problems - I would say that 7 seed still needs to win that game, and if they do, it's ok. If that means there's a chance the 3 seed has an "easier" path, they still need to win both games, and they'll still need to win the 3rd for the championship. I'm intentionally putting a lot of faith in the inherent power of a single elimination playoff, that regardless of the draw, if you put the 12 most "deserving" teams in the playoff, the last team standing is the objective champion and the proven "best" team, and any assessment of "best" doesn't matter until the end.
