Down goes another national seed, 11 OK State.
I don't keep track of yearly averages or anything, but some interesting tidbits I noticed so far:
1. As of right now, not a single 2 seed has advanced to the Supers. Every advancing team has been a 1, 3, or 4 (yay, Evansville). LSU could change that with a win against North Carolina right now.
2. 9 National Seeds have advanced, 5 have been eliminated, and 2 are TBD. If both national seeds lose tonight, then we'd have 7 national seeds eliminated in the Regionals. That seems high, but, again, I don't know. If I had to bet, I would think LSU beats North Carolina and OU beats UConn and we end up with 10 out of 16 national seeds advancing.
3. So far, the ACC has advanced all of their National seeds (this could change if LSU beats UNC tonight), but no non-national seeds from the ACC advanced.
4. Evansville is the only team from a current non-Power 5 conference to advance, though UConn could change that with a win over OU tonight.
5. The Big Ten advanced NOBODY.
6. Current breakdown of conferences in the Supers vs Regionals:
SEC - 5 (with a possible 6) out of 11
ACC - 4 (with a possible 5) out of 8
Big 12 - 2 (with a possible 3) out of 6
Pac-12 - 2 out of 3
Missouri Valley - 1 out of 2
All other conferences - 0 (with a possible 1) out of 34
