when they have years where they aren't nearly perfect. They go 30-4 this year and finish with a 4 seed. They've had since 2003 8 years where finish the year with between 6-10 losses. In those 8 years- average seed in tourney is 8.88, with 6 of those years in the 7-10 stew.

This Gonzaga team wouldn't have gone 30-4 in a better conference. I live in Gonzaga's media market. I've seen a lot of their games over the years. By and large, they get about what they deserve in NCAA seeding. If you look at their tournament performance, they outperformed their seed during the first 3 years of their run. Since then, they really haven't. In a different league with a tougher conference tourney path, they might have missed the NCAA altogether in a few of those years.
The thing is, look at Wichita. Last year they went in MVC 30-4 and got an 8 seed. This year in AAC they went 25-7 and got a 4 seed. SOS matters that much. You can have a worse record, and be a higher seed.
