I don't know but if we only play 3 games and two of them are as visitors, that's horse shite. We earned the right to play in our stadium, we should always be the home team.

I would think that since we were visitors last night we shouldn't be visitors again tonight

I believe that is correct....2 of ULL's 3 games have been as the visitor, 2 of SHSU's 3 have been as the home team.

The last team to serve as a visitor is home team. However, since both teams were visitors in their last game, the higher seed is given home team status.

I'm of the opinion the higher seed should always be home team in the regionals.

Correct, I also asked Someone at the game, but maybe he "wasn't in the know", however he had an official looking LSU shirt, a name badge, and a walkie talkie! I did not ask him if he spent the night at a Holiday Inn Express however!

The amount of bullshite and misinformation in this thread is amazing.

The rule and formula for figuring out who is home and who is visitor is simple and it has been the same for years (whether you agree with it or not is a different issue)

It is all dependent on whom has been the home team the smallest percentage of games in which they have played.

If ULL wins today, they will be home team tonight. Why? Because going into tonight, ULL will have been the home team 33% of the time (1 out of 3) and LSU will have been the home team 50% of the time (1 out of 2).

It has nothing to do with who was home team last, it has nothing to do with seeding, it has nothing to do with what might or might not be fair. That is the rule...and it has been this way forever.
