I have a feeling it will be the top east coast teams (East of the mississippi 1-6 seeds will automatically get put in greenville. The challenge will be for teams like Texas and Baylor , LSU , Arizona who if they are and most likely seeded 1-6 do you ship them to Washington or Greenville , likely greenville but there's a domino affect for other teams ranked near or the same if they are closer to greenville somebody is doing a lot of traveling.
Would possibly/probably mean a pre-final 4 rematch with SCar or Tennessee in one of the Eastern brackets.Purchased 3 tickets this morning. Live half hour away and excited to (hopefully) see Uconn play.
Hoping both are on opposite side of the brackets! Odds are very unlikely we’ll see Tennessee before the Final Four. They’ll both probably be in Greenville but they’ll likely play each other versus playing us.
I don't know for sure how the committee will decide which schools to place in which of the 2 regional sites. Obviously, there will still be 4 regional brackets. And, I assume the #1 seeds in each bracket will be slated to go to the Regional closest to them. So, the rest of the teams who qualify for the Sweet 16 would go to the Regional site based on where the #1 seed in their bracket is slated.
4 brackets 2 locations . Greenville and Spokane so regardless of the brackets the travel will be a complaint during the tourney from some #1 seeds and likely 2-5 being misplaced or not placed closer due to a possible early matchup with a conference rival or an unmatched on the curve opponent. Im Anxious to see how this unfolds for teams not seeded the first 3 #1 seeds.
