Let's talk NCAA sites...

Obviously I want Milwaukee or St. Louis cause I want to go.

What are the chances? Anyone that knows more than me care to comment on our likely placement?

Let's win the big 12 championship first.

 

[cloneluke80]

derp i just realized if we go 3 or 4 seed we wont be at St. Louis or Milwaukee

 

[BigJCy]

I'd say San Antonio is a likely spot, but who knows.

 

[uro cy]

Sweet 16 thru Indy, please

You may be right. SA is the great city to host a sporting event . Riverwalk is a blast. Clone fans should be hoping for SA.

 

[cloneluke80]

only problem with SA is the whole 20 hour drive thing... flights are well over $1000

but I agree, fun city

As along as it's Arlington, TX in the end, I don't care where.

Jerry Palm just updated his brackets and has us as the #2 playing in St. Louis on Friday. I live in St. Louis, so obviously this would be awesome for me

Give us St. Louis or Milwaukee. We've earned it.

 

[Cy83ag]

How great would that be.

Creighton lost. ISU wins the toughest conference tournament. I think St. Louis goes to the Cyclones.

 

[Cy83ag]

He also has Texas(7) playing EIU(10) in Raleigh.

Would love Palm's draw. Toughest matchup in the sweet 16 would be SDSU. I think their defense would give us trouble, but no moreso than Baylor's zone, which we've proven that we can beat.

Toughest matchup in the elite 8 would likely be Zona/MSU. Both these teams straight up scare me, certainly beatable, but MSU has been clicking like crazy lately, and Zona has the obvious edge in athleticism/size inside.

I'm not sure I buy us as the two seed, I think we deserve it based on our overall resume and being big 12 tourney champs, but there is just so much competition between that last one seed all the way down to the 4. I think we end up getting bumped by Louisville/Nova/Kansas into the 3 seed. Hope I'm wrong, and i hope we can avoid getting stuck somewhere like Orlando to play Florida, lol.

If we're in St Louis, we will bring 40,000 - 50,000 easy. Hilton South

 

[CascadeClone]

Are the seeds tied into the sites? eg are the 1 and 2 in the midwest for sure in STL?

FIFY. Kansas City will forever be Hilton South. Arlington will be Hilton Deep South.

No. Sites are determined in order of "overall seeding" of the tournament being placed in the closest available site to the school. For instance, using Palm's bracket, Florida, the number 1 overall, is assigned to Orlando. Arizona, the number 2 overall, San Diego. Wichita St, 3, St. Louis. Michigan, 4, Milwaukee. Villanova, 5, Buffalo. Wisconsin, 6, Milwaukee. Iowa St, 7, St. Louis. Louisville, 8, Raleigh. And so on.

Where will the other 20,000-30,000 go to see the game?

 

[cloneluke80]

St. Louis would be amazing
