Message: [QUOTE="Blakeon18, post: 4252723, member: 35"] We've read on this board that IF Stanford and South Carolina get to the final four they would not be paired in the semi-finals. That would make sense given their season-long performances. But...does the NCAA have some sort of rule in that regard? Could they meet in the semis...or is that [kinda] forbidden by NCAA policy? Also: suppose one of them don't make it to the final four....or both? Would their region winners [Spokane and Greensboro] simply take their spots and NOT play each other? Or...would the NCAA effectively reseed all the final four teams...whoever they are...and put 1 with 4 and 2 with 3 in the semis? If just one of the two [Stanford/SC] makes it then would that team be regarded as the #1 final four seed and be placed with their presumed weakest entry. Idle speculation with an example: Texas/UConn/South Carolina/Louisville make it. Semis: SC/Texas UConn/Louisville ??? Or would other factors...such as trying to avoid matching teams that have already played factor in...as in UConn/Louisville? [/QUOTE]
