According to many “experts,” it did not matter what Virginia did last night in Brooklyn against North Carolina because they were locked in to not only a one seed, but the number one overall seed.
Well, the Hoos went ahead and won anyway to leave no doubt. Obviously nobody knows for sure where UVa will be seeded given the Selection Show is not until 6 PM tonight, but let’s just assume they are a 1 seed and the number one overall seed for the 2018 NCAA Tournament.
With that information in mind, looking back at how the one seeds have fared over the last five tournaments might give an idea of what to expect from the Cavaliers and who they might play before a Final Four berth.
