That doesn't NOT make it a crapshoot, IMO.

You'll generally have 4 teams that win ~85-90% of the regular season games and it's pretty rare they all make it to the national semifinals... what other league has such a high winning percentage for its best teams, yet such a low chance of even making it to the semifinals, much less winning it all?

Hell, UConn was a 4 seed last year and was barely ranked in mid-February... they were 4th in their division. No other league allows them to play for a championship.

If all of the 1 seeds made it every year, or even most of them, I'd tend to agree that end of the day, the best teams win every year... but, IMO the fact that most of those teams don't make it out of their region for even a chance to play the last two games makes it far more random than any other league.
