Just saw the latest NCAA reveal of the top 16 at halftime of the total blowout of U Conn over S Florida. 

#1s in order -- South Carolina (Greenville region); Baylor (Dallas region); Oregon (Portland); Maryland (Fort Wayne)
#2s in order -- UConn (Portland region);  Louisville (Fort Wayne region); Stanford (Dallas region); UCLA (Greenville region)

Both OSU (#15) and Arizona (#14) are in top 16 as 4 seeds, so would get to host.

Oh please oh please let UConn get sent to Portland opposite Oregon.

Weird. As the top #2 they would generally go to either the geographically closest regional or the one with the bottom #1 (S-curve). There must have been some other compromise in play to send them to Portland.

Maybe they started with the S-curve and then swapped UConn with Louisville on the theory that Ft. Wayne is driving distance from Louisville.
