Who are the locals rooting for at the Dome?
Big east or ACC?
 
I'd root for Duke against either team. I'd root for Nova against Virginia, but I'd root for Virginia against Providence.

The way Arcidiacano played in our matchup earlier this season really rubbed me the wrong way, but I like Jay Wright and am really starting get a bad taste in my mouth from Viriginia.
 
Seems like a classic meteor scenario.

Of course, then the Carrier Dome would be destroyed.

But maybe an insurance policy would pay for a sweet new building and SU could get out of the naming deal they made with Carrier, so for me, it's meteor all the way.
 
Right now, the East Regional would be the ACC Champ vs Gonzaga in in terms of the 1 vs 2 seed.

The #1 seeds being Kentucky, Duke, Virginia, Villanova.

Kentucky plays in Cleveland.
ACC Champ plays in Syracuse
Villanova plays in Houston
Virginia plays in Los Angeles

Arizona would be the natural #2 seed to place in LA
Wisconsin makes sense in Cleveland.
Kansas will take Houston as it closest.
Gonzaga takes the leftover region.
 
Any of the 3 vs. Duke. If Duke's not involved root for my bracket
 
We could see #1 Villanova v. #4 Louisville and #2 Virginia v. #6 Providence.

So I had 3 of the teams we could see in the Dome in the original message.
 
Providence, Nova, UVA, and a distant last Duke. I'm not the type to suddenly give up sports preferences due to current circumstance, although in real life I suppose being a sell out can be of use. BTW, Marsh Duke!! If we go to the SEC in a few years I'm not going to start supporting Kentucky, regardless of the logical arguments for doing so. This is sports!!
 
I will not like it, but I have to root for Duke. The farther they go the better shot my wife has at winning some $$$$$. After Duke, Providence.....how can you not like Ed Cooley.

Northern Iowa is my adopted team to follow for the tournament. If you don't know who Seth Tuttle is now, you will within the next three weeks.

I was hoping to say the same about Cameron Payne for Murray St.
