Message: [QUOTE="biobioprof, post: 3084603, member: 8869"] I believe the geography deviation from the S curve is based on a 350 mile cutoff, not just ranking the distances. The 1 and 2 seeds within that distance of a regional, I believe are: Albany - UConn Chicago - ND, Louisville, Iowa Portland - Oregon This is why the discussion even before yesterday had UConn in Albany and Oregon in Portland as either 1 or 2 seeds. Being within 350 is an all or none thing, so in the discussion of ND and Louisville after the second reveal, they both had an equal case for Chicago even though South Bend is a lot closer. Baylor, Stanford, and Miss State aren't within 350 of any of the sites. I don't know if the committee considered flipping the regionals for Stanford and Iowa or if some other constraint prevented that. [/QUOTE]
