So if Kentucky, UCLA, and MSU all hold on, I would have correctly predicted the 1st round in the Midwest and South in my Antonio Brown Pool.

If UCLA manages to hold on, the PAC 12 will be 5-0 after the first round.

These late games are atrocious. The only game worth watching is Marquette/South Carolina

The Bruins just suck at defending the 3, it could be what gets them fishing early.

Not in this one but it still is apparent.

The South Carolina/Marquette game being played in the state of South Carolina is ridiculous.

A 7 seed getting such a huge home court advantage is ridiculous. They had 3 other regions to send them to as a 7 seed but you choose the east where they get to play 2 possible games in South Carolina

Florida State and Florida Gulf Coast like this

This is my beef with it. a 7 seed shouldn't be rewarded with home court.

Don't really care about how geographically challenged the committee is.

Why not send them to the west and put St. Mary's here in the East region. 7 seed should get no favors and nor should you expect any.

Could have put South Carolina as the #7 seed in the west or midwest. There isn't a single SEC team in those regions.

Truth is I'm only pissy about it, because I've seen some highly ranked Wake Forest teams get sent out to some ridiculous locations because UNC and Duke are a thing.

Marquette would probably have a comfortable lead if this wasn't a semi-home game for South Carolina. Gamecocks getting an energy boost from partisan crowd every time it seems their losing ground. Still don't understand how a seventh seed can play this close to home.

No kidding. Arizona was a 6 seed last year and we had to go to Rhode Island... Only 2 time zones and 2,500 miles away.

Did not realize Marquette was placing South Caroline in their home state. I still believe.

Then why did two Florida teams get a virtual home game, even though they were in the west bracket?

For that matter, why does Duke get what is pretty much a home game all the way to the Regionals? Or UNC? Greenville isn't that far down I-85 from the Triangle.
