10-Year Mayhem Potential

Data from Bob Vetrone Jr. on Twitter.

Over the past 10 seasons, the No. 1 or 2 seed has only won the Conference USA Tournament six times with the No. 4 more successful than the two.

1 seed (4): 2012, 2013, 2017, 20194 seed (3): 2011. 2015, 20182 seed (2): 2014, 20167 seed (1): 2010

10-Year NCAA Seeding Record

Years with an NCAA win are in bold.

12 seed (4): 2010 (at-large), 2011 (at-large), 2011 (automatic), 201713 seed (3); 2010 (automatic), 2014, 201814 seed (2): 2015, 20196 seed (1): 20138 seed (1): 2012 (automatic)9 seed (1): 2012 (at-large)15 seed (1): 2016

Two of the three single-digit seeds above were earned by the now-departed Memphis Tigers. Amazingly, UTEP’s 2010, UAB’s 2011, and USM’s 2012 at-large bids went to current league members.

This season’s winner is likely to earn a 13 seed (if North Texas, Louisiana Tech, or WKU) or lower.
