The 3 seed thing is correct .


For example, geographical reasons aside for now, VT (assume is the No. 2 overall seed) should get a lower 2-seed (team ranked/seeded somewhere in the upper 20s/low 30s) but will get one of the highest 3 seeds available. So the Liberty as the 3-seed aligns correctly. It is the LSU (RPI of 19) who would be the injustice.

If that's confusing above, let's use OU as the example and let's make them the #1 overall seed. Using a perfect system with all 64 teams seeded (not reality but just using as a means to explain the general makeup of the system), OU's regional would look like this:

OU - #1 seed in region (#1 overall seed)
Team x - #2 seed in region (#32 overall seed)
Team y - #3 seed in region (#33 overall seed)
Team z - #4 seed in region (#64 overall seed)

Overall 1 seed would get the worst 2 and 4 seeds and the best 3 seed.
