No 11s Marquette, VCU & No 10 Florida State Advance

Yet once again in the NCAA Men's Tournament the SECOND round winners have left us scratching our heads.  It seems to happen every year on the Road to the Final Four.  The games leading into the Sweet Sixteen during the SECOND round have left everyone baffled asto how the teams that advanced did so at such low seeds.  No 11 Marquette beat No 3 Syracuse, No 11 VCU (who had to play in to get the seed) destroyed No 3 Purdue & No 10 Florida State beat up No 2 Notre Dame over the weekend.  Notre Dame and Purdue seemed to never be in either game and had to fight not to lose by more.  Syracuse was pretty much sweating from beginning to end then just ran out of gas losing by 4.  Is it possible some of the teams in the Tournament are much better than where they are being seeded?  Or is the seeding of the teams allegedly better totally off?  Maybe it's time to start paying more respect to the teams that are still in the Tournament for the future and not over-seed teams that don't really deserve it...ala St Johns, Pitt & Vanderbilt.  In spite of all the things looked at as far as seeding teams (i.e. season record, conference record, wins vs. elite teams, blah blah blah..) maybe they should also consider where they were seeded & how the did in the Tournament in the previous 5 years.  If they've been there before and have done well make sure they get seeded as deserved and not let in say St Johns who hasn't been in it the 5 years and hand them a 6 seed. On the brighter side, my West Bracket is still perfect and betweeen the East & West I have 7 of 8 in the Elite Eight.  On the SE & SW side, I have 2 of the 8.  The SE & SW have been messy from the beginning but I still have my Final Four in tact with Duke, NC, Kansas & BYU still alive.
