In the case of the Midwest bracket, the location is St. Louis, so the regional name makes sense.<br /><br />However, I do agree that the first and second round locations are incredibly random and unfair to a lot of teams. One would think they would try to keep similar locations grouped together, but they tend to mix and match to reward the #1 seeds (ie: Syracuse, the #1 seed in the West region, is playing its first and second round games in Buffalo, NY).Knowitall McPompousnoreply@blogger.com
