That's very likely. If we're a 2 and they are a 15 bracket procedures would likely have them playing us.

Does anybody else also dislike the pod/regional system like I do? I honestly believe ever since they started doing this they have screwed up the brackets so much trying to fit certain teams in certain regions.

It's good and it's bad. Like a few years ago UC was the highest rated 8 seed. I think because of that they moved them to the closest location to home that a 1 seed had been slotted in. Well that just so happened to be in Louisville with an unbeaten Kentucky team.

So it's nice playing close to home, but UC had the best resume of any 8 seed (according to the committee) and had to play far and away the best team in round 2.
