In theory, recent games do mean more. On the team sheets, rankings of a predictive model are used, and that model includes a recency bias.

You have more knowledge on this than I and would enjoy understanding more if you can shed some light.  When you say team sheets, do you mean these?  https://i.turner.ncaa.com/sites/default/files/images/2017/12/04/team_sheet_guide1.pdf

The rankings of predictive models you mention, are those boxes 4, 5 and 6?  I did not realize those predictive models have added values or a recency bias built in, am I understanding you correctly based on your comments?

In last months SI they were saying no recency bias exists and that seems to line up with the CBS article, so there is some confusion based on the mock seeding exercise the committee at the time.    https://www.si.com/college-basketball/2018/02/12/ncaa-tournament-seeding-bracket-top-16-breakdown-march-madness
