Message: [QUOTE="UcMiami, post: 4587479, member: 199"] But only one of those Pac 12 teams is in the Pacific time zone, and that team is playing in Greenville. The other two are in the Mountain time zone and probably about the same distance to St Louis or KC, or Denver or Dallas or even Phoenix which would chop off one time zone an an hour or two flying time for all the east coast and midwest teams. I don't mind the idea of a super regional, just with most P6 teams located well east of the Rockies placing the regional on the west coast is stupid. Placing a regional with 4 teams on the west coast more than a few times a decade didn't make sense either. As for making the early rounds 'regional' that dates back to when UCLA was winning all their championships - they never had to play a team from east of the Rockies until they arrived at the FF which was an advantage because if the won their conference they only had to beat minnows to reach the FF.
