I think one of my favorite aspects this year is the unpredictability of the elimination rounds.

This past week, all three MI districts were won by non-#1 seeds. I can't ever remember that happening before in a single week.

Kinda reminds me of the unpredictability of march madness, which everybody loves.
Whichever team flips the better coin gets less fouls. And that's due to a horrible rule book with rules that punish teams for things they could not, under any circumstances, have avoided.

Not sure why that's a good thing...
