3 seeds getting to the Final Four aren't "Cinderella" teams. It's a low seed G5 team who comes out of nowhere to make a big tournament run. Oral Roberts is the only one this year.

Also false.
Oregon State is a definite Cinderella.
LSU was considered a Cinderella in 1986 as an 11 seed despite being ranked as high as #8 in January.
Syracuse and UCLA also fit the bill this year.
So I count 4 teams that could all be considered Cinderellas.
