Message: [QUOTE="Alydar, post: 3471408, member: 730"] 2008. UConn was the overall 1 seed. There was a close battle between Rutgers and another school for the last 1 seed. The other school got it. Rutgers as the overall No 5 seed should have played the weakest 1 seed but instead the committee had them play in UConn's region. They claimed it was a geographical decision but they had no problem flying in teams from across the country. It just seems like geography is used when it suits the committee and ignored when it dosn't. And it's revealing that you have to go back 15 years to find examples. Lots of teams back then hosted regionals. I remember that a Final Four was played in TBA. A little Tenn bias? UConn never got that privilege. :) [/QUOTE]
