Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 2084125, member: 5798"] Ozimoto, I hear you. Join the club. NOBODY wants to be in UConn's region. I say that every year, because it's true. A team has a "puncher's chance" of coming out of any other region, except UConn's. You're familiar with the term "[I]the kiss of death[/I]". Being assigned to the Bridgeport Region is the kiss of death. Because UConn ALWAYS comes out of their regional. When teams watch the bracket selection show on TV Monday night, they'll be looking for two things. 1. Who they play. 2. What region are they assigned to. They're all hoping it's not Bridgeport. No coach/player will admit to hoping not to be assigned to Bridgeport. Every team in the tournament has aspirations of going all the way. UConn is that cow on the tracks if you're in their region. If you are assigned to their bracket, you want to be in the bottom half, since as a 1 seed, they are always in the top half. [/QUOTE]
