In 2001 there was autopairing (example: seed 1 automatically is paired with seed 5), and then teams could choose who they wanted.

There were questions of whether or not teams would throw matches back then to get into a better position to be picked. Can you imagine how often this could potentially happen if you weren't allowed to pick among the top 8?
