Creighton at #20 and Florida at #21 both get to host the first two rounds of the NCAA tournament.  I don't think Florida deserved to host.

could that be a regional travel cost thing?

That's not _supposed_ to be a factor in deciding who gets seeded.
Cost only factors into which unseeded teams get sent to which site, if I understand correctly.

There was some chatter on VT about the committee using last week's RPI, which would be strange and not the previous practice.
I believe Florida was #15 last week, before their two final losses.

Note, the committee uses RPI, not the coaches' poll:

Stanford is #26 in that, still well below Florida (#21) and Creighton (#8)
