Certainly not Boise, at the risk of brining back pretty terrible UAB memories.

I'd say anywhere on Thursday/Saturday. I wanna see us play soon.

Crashing the Dance has distances for all the schools to all the pod/region sites.

319 miles to Memphis. Kansas City is the closest pod at 637 miles, Miami second at 737 miles.

I'd like to see us finally breakthrough and get it done in Boise at the Taco Bell arena. We're always garbage leaving that place, whether's it's Shaq's last game against Indiana in '92 or the UAB debacle back in 05. Like the blue and orange area between the paint and the 3 point line, classic. Get rid of some bad Boise memories.

It also depends on what our seed is as to where we'd go. I'd say we're going to be somewhere around a 3, 4, or 5 seed.

That means in the first and second rounds we could play in Boise, Portland, Miami, Minneapolis, or Philadelphia.

I guess I'd rather play in either Miami, Minneapolis, or Philly. I don't want to go out west. It would be best to stay in either the Central or Eastern time zones. They're all kind of far away, so I can't really decide the best place for LSU to play if they're a 3-5 seed.
