Re: Highest Seed not Chosen for Finals
Over time, you personally will see more and more of this. Teams will get "overlooked" because they don't have a noticeable name, they are a rookie team (although now it is not so true as rookies are not "true rookies" anymore), and teams will pick teams just because they are "friends". The lowest I know that has been overlooked was 13th/14th and that was in 2003 at the Championship.

It would be interesting to have the data to know if a team lower has been overlooked, as usually at least 9 & 10 get bumped into Alliance Positioning.
