Seems about right to me.
The advantage for seeding top 3 is there as they still win a disproportionate amount.

FWIW at Hartford District there was only one upset and it was 3 over 2 in the semi which was close battle.

Have there been any "chalk bracket", aka "All Red", regionals/districts this year?
