Curious the way they put about 2,3 and 4 seeds "Replacing" the national host seed for super regional purposes.

So a 4 seed that wins the 8 seeded regional would host a super over a 2 seed who wins the 9 seeded regional?

To which they stated it, that sounds to be correct but quite questioning on why they would do it like that.

I could be reading into this wrong, but I think this was more in regards to them not re-seeding after the regional round. So the team that beat the #8 seed and the team that beat the #9 seed would still be matched up in the super, but the process for determining who hosted wouldn't be changed.

I wouldn't mind seeing a re-seed going into the Supers - don't seed 1-16 until after the regionals are completed.

No, unless I'm reading it wrong the higher seed would always host the super regional. So a 2 seed from a lower "regional" would host the 4 seed from a higher "regional".

The change is more about seeding for the start of the tournament.
