    The 5-12 Thread

    Oh come all ye 5-12 seed enthusiasts.


    Just posting research I've done on these pairings. Feel free to add your own + thoughts on this year's match-ups.

    #5 NOTRE DAME [-6.5] vs. #12 GEORGE MASON
    #5 MICHIGAN STATE [-6.5] vs. #12 TEMPLE
    #5 CLEMSON [-6.5] vs. #12 VILLANOVA
    #5 DRAKE [-4] vs. #12 W.KENTUCKY

    SINCE 1990 [72 games]
    12s have won STRAIGHT UP 25 times.
    12s have lost by 10 POINTS OR LESS 24 times.
    12s have lost by 10 POINTS OR MORE 23 times [3 by 10 exactly]

    Only 5 tourneys have featured 2 or more #5 seeds winning by double digits.

    Will add more as I find it.

    I think Temple is the only #12 that wins this year.

    I agree LT. Really like Temple. Taking the points though.
