Reply to comment by tedweird in [OC] Lower Seeded Teams are Winning More in the NCAA Men's Basketball Round of 64 by Tiger_Rivers

My original title was “Good Teams Getting Worse in …” but I’m not sure if that’s the conclusion, or like you mentions the bad teams are getting better.

I’d wager that it’s a combo of both. As the bad teams get slightly better they get better recruits(therefore taking them from the better teams), more money, more fan support, etc.
