Team A vs Team B

Team A and B are outlined below. It is definitely not clear-cut, but I just don't see how you don't give a slight edge to Team A. Yet in almost every bracket, Team B is seeded higher.

What the above numbers also don't show is that Team A was without a key player for 9 games and went 6-3 and beat Team B while that key player was out. Team B also did not have to play a road game against the co-conference champion in the unbalanced schedule.

Team A - Wisconsin

Team B - Michigan State
