Message: [QUOTE="willingtonfan, post: 2623251, member: 2059"] Oldude, your analysis is spot on. When I looked at the bracket, my initial thought was that the committee got this just about right. UGA, our 4 seed, is the 17th ranked team in the Coaches poll, which is about right. South Carolina, our 2 seed, is the 7th ranked team. I think if this team focuses on the business at hand, as you said, one game at a time, they will be okay. And I will be doing some road tripping... (hotel reservations and driving itineraries for both Albany and Columbus are made and sitting in a file ready to be deployed) Looking forward to a hopeful 12th national championship, and to seeing it in person myself for the 6th time (went in 2000, 2002, 2010, 2014 and 2016). As they say, enjoy the madness! I will be definitely staying for the second game on Saturday to root for Quinnipiac (went to grad school there). I hope lots of Husky fans will do likewise; as a fellow Connecticut-located team, they deserve the support of home state fans, even if they are there for other reasons. Ms. Fabry has done a great job bringing the team from a perennial bottom of a lousy conference team to now being in the NCAA tournament two years in a row, even reaching the Sweet Sixteen. You have no idea what a big deal that is for a little school like Quinnipiac, other than that it forces people to actually learn how to pronounce Quinnipiac! So I'm hoping for a second-round matchup with them. [/QUOTE]
