If you're a fairly strong team and get under seeded, being a 12 is a pretty good place to be. If you win, the confidence you get from beating a 5 seed could be immense and make the prospect of beating a 4 seed not so daunting. I think Princeton proved that the last two years giving a 3 and a 2 a run for their money. Had they played a 4 or 5 seed in round two there's a good chance they might have won. But the toughest part is still having to play the higher seed on their home court.
