In response to iogyhufi
I'm not entirely convinced of that - there's a rumor going around that the committee just splits the difference between the two teams in the ILT final and labels the spot "Ivy Champion," which may be suggested by Yale getting a slightly generous 14 seed this time much as it was by Yale getting an egregious 14 seed in 2019. Which, frankly, is shockingly lazy, given that the committee is compensated well enough that you'd think they could be bothered to make contingency brackets, but ah well.
I'm sure they do have contingency brackets for power conference championship games -- though Tennessee fans probably disagree -- but there is no real return on doing so for a 13 - 15 seed. Just create an Ivy slot and focus on the teams CBS talks about because outside of this board, no one will really care.
Now, an Ivy final between a "has to be a 16" and a 13 or so could put that theory to the test.
