[quote CornellFan]Princeton was also a 5 seed just a few years ago.  Bucknell was also a high seed last year.[/quote]

Bucknell's 2007 OOC: @ Albany (returning Am East champ); Wake Forest (ACC); @ St. Joe's, @ Xavier  (A10); @ Penn St. (Big 10); @ George Mason (CAA: returning Final Four team); @ Texas Tech (Big 12); @ N. Iowa (MVC).

Bucknell's 2006 OOC: @Syracuse, @ DePaul, Villanova (Big East); St. Joes (A10); @ Santa Clara (WCC); @ Duke (ACC); N. Iowa (MVC).

As for Princeton's 5 seed, don't even dare to dream like that. They went 26-1 with this schedule.

Best Ivy team ever?  (I know, there were final four teams as recently as 1979, but the quality of the field was much less then, too.)
