Baton Rouge regional is the only regional where the #1 seed is playing the first game. Does this really give us an advantage? I know Skip started this becasue of the heat factor, but shouldn't we be able to beat a #4 seed anytime? I am taking off work to go to the game, but I sure would like to be sitting down later on. Any thoughts?

They do this for many reasons. They get more rest between games than the late game, it drives the attendance up for the late game meaning more revenue. Which when all is said and done, money is still probably the biggest factor.

Everyone keeps saying ours is the only regional where the 1 seed is playing first, but if i'm not mistaken, Georgia Tech is doing the same thing.

The interactive bracket on the stickied link has the wrong time. I was hoping to listen to the LSU game during the day and then the Southern Miss game at night. Unfortunately, they are being played at roughly the same time.
