No but, there were 6 total "upsets" in the entire tournament
Upset being defined by the NCAA as seeds 5 or more lower than the opponent. So, these past few tournaments have been as chalky as ever. 4 of those 6 games involved Texas and Iowa collecting 2 wins.
Yeah, that's not exactly the foundation for increasing the number of mid-majors but watching teams finish below .500 in conference "earning" their way in doesn't excite me either.
