Now that we all can breathe easy for a week or so and think about the BTT and NCAA seeding, how about a trivia question? On some level, a 10-seed would have been fun for MSU, as it would have given Izzo a shot to become only the 6th coach in tournament history to get a win over all 16 seeds. Izzo is currently 0-3 against 7-seeds (including last year's loss to UCONN). Incidentally, Jud did get a win over a 7-seed in 1979, so MSU is one of only 10 programs to have accomplished the clean sweep of seeds. So, here is the question:
Which 5 coaches have accomplished the seed clean sweep, having notched a win over all 16 seeds in their career? As a hint, only 1 is currently active, and it is NOT coach K. (Coach K is 0-1 against 10-seeds.)
As a bonus, name the other 9 programs with a clean sweep. Only one other school in is the Big Ten. Please note that seeding only began in 1979.
