MWC Tournament 4 vs 5 seed Numbers

I looked up some numbers on the 4 vs 5 seed games.

The 4 seed has a 13-8 record vs the 5 seed in the tournament history since 2000 in quarterfinal games.

When Wyoming and UNLV have played each other in the tournament UNLV is 4-0 against Wyoming. BUT UNLV was the higher seed in all 4.

UNLV as a 1 seed beat a 5 seed Wyoming in the semifinals.
Twice UNLV as a 4 seed beat a 5th seeded Wyoming. There was one other time and UNLV was higher seed, I’ll have to look it up again.


Wyoming as a 4 seed in quarterfinals games and Tournament history is 1-0 and 3-0 respectively.

That is because the only other time Wyoming was a 4 seed they won the MWC tournament in 2015.

UNLV as a 5 seed is 0-2 in tournament history.


Semi-final game:
4 seed vs 1 seed 5-8

4 seed vs 8 seed 1-0


Wyoming as 4 seed in semifinal

1-0 (won the tournament)

Who did Wyoming beat in the semifinal? None other than Boise St. when they were the 1 seed, just like this year.
 
The other side of the bracket in the semis will likely be the same as 2015 as well, with SDSU and CSU, assuming they win their games.
