Add 2006 and 2004 to the list of under seeded teams. 2006 in particular was robbed--top 10 team all year, projected as a 2/3 seed, end up a 4.

In fact, here are our NCAA seeds and final KenPom ratings from 2002-06:

2002: 4 (8)

2003: 4 (5)

2004: 5 (13)

2005: 1 (2)

2006: 4 (9)

In an era before the committee relied on analytics, one wonders how different our NCAA history would look if we had been given the opportunity of a bunch 2 and 3 seeds during what was already a golden era.
