No Houston, Texas or Washington. I'm shocked Louisville hosts over Houston but they probably will claim regular season title was enough for the Cards. We'll probably get UH or UT here as a very tough 2 seed.

They won't send UT to Ft Worth or Stillwater since those are Big XII hosts, so my money's on UT.

If UH had a final RPT about the same as Rice and didn't even get to host a Regional, I think that pretty much puts us out of the National Seed running. Maybe the Committee isn't giving RPI the same weight this year as they have in years past.

Right - and UH probably to LSU - at least that's where they used to send Rice alot in the past. Although to TCU could be an option - I'd actually like to see that - it could be a good match-up.

Where will they send UH? TCU would totally suck for them.

I also wonder if they might have A&M as the 3 seed in our region. That would be epic and might guarantee we're one of the ESPNU regionals.

So who do we get paired with? I can't remember how much geography plays into that. TCU? LSU? Or do they pair ULaLa with LSU?

Last year the Oregon regional was paired with NC State. What type of geography was that?

ULL won't be paired with LSU if they're both national seeds. Probably TCU if the Horned Frogs are a national seed, but possibly LSU as well. Geography normally plays a part in the pairings to a point (you can pretty much guarantee Oregon State will be paired with Cal Poly).

I also wonder if we're looking at 16 1 seeds. Oklahoma State and Louisville (18 and 19 in RPI currently) are the only two of those teams not in the top 16 RPI. I guess it's conceivable they send UT to Louisville and UH to Oklahoma State as 1 seeds, but I doubt it.

I knew when UH lost to UConn they were dead in the water as a host, but even still, a top 10 RPI not hosting has only happened once the last 10 years. Virginia in 2008 when they finished 5th in the ACC and there were 4 other ACC teams hosting.

From an I'd like to win and advance standpoint, I hope UH gets sent to Oklahoma State or Rice, but seeing as the NCAA apparently hates UH, they will probably get sent to ULL or LSU.

I'm guessing the Rice/ULL and LSU/TCU regionals will be matched, assuming ULL and TCU get national seeds.

Oregon, Oregon State (and Fullerton) were all national seeds last year. They couldn't pair up any of those three against each other and Fullerton was paired with the UCLA regional. So that left Raleigh (for Oregon) and Manhattan, Kansas (for Oregon State). It's normally regional, best as they can get it.

I think UH was more deserving of a host than Vandy, given UH's RPI and the way Vandy tanked in their tourny - they lost 4 of their last 6, and finished 3rd in the SEC East. That's hosting material?

I think we'll get both UT and A&M, which would create one heck of an atmosphere at The Reck, and ensure a sell-ouit of 5,000+.

...and finishing a distant 3rd place in the AAC regular season, 4 1/2 games back. Having said that, they deserve it over Louisville.
