I know we’d all take the second round of the tournament in a heartbeat but I’m fine with no Albany if it means we avoid Nova and Seton Hall tbh.

If not Albany, I want Tampa (family lives there) or Omaha (there might never be another time to visit Nebraska).

I think we could be very competitive against Nova this year. Particularly on a neutral floor.

After 29 years in the desert, short of the game being played on the moon , we should all be there. Now if the committee wants to insure a decentbRutgers following Greensboro, Albany , Cleveland and Tampa would do the trick. See you all there wherever there is.

Tampa on Thursday would be ideal for me. Skip the first day of bachelor party in Mexico for the game then short flight

I've been to Tampa, Greensboro and Albany and have no particular desire to go back to those places. Never been to Cleveland, Sacramento, Spokane, St. Louis or Omaha and can't say I have any burning desire to go to any of those places either, lol. Given that, I'd vote for the location most likely to get RU fans, i.e., Albany.

As an aside, when I look at the bracket websites, they show rounds 1 and 2, but don't show which locations feed the 4 regional final locations. Given that Albany, Spokane, St. Louis, and Tampa all play on 3/19 and 3/21 (vs. 3/20 and 3/22 for the other 4 sites), I would presume those are Midwest and West feeders, since those two regionals are held on 3/26 and 3/28 (vs. 3/27 and 3/29 for the other 2 sites). I thought they kept the teams that play on Thurs/Sat the same in the first 2 rounds and the regionals the following week. Seems odd that Albany wouldn't feed the East Region, but maybe that's because they don't want a team to be "home" for that long? Anyone know this for sure? Thanks. Never really cared that much before we might be in it, lol, and back when we were in it, I didn't pay as close attention.

Not sure about the timing of projecting the game sites right now for games in the tournament for RU.

Don’t we need 3 more wins before making tournament plans?

Just hope these types of threads don’t jinx us from getting in. Will make good fodder for opposing fans who will enjoy seeing RU denied getting into the tourney.

Btw Im hoping for Tampa or any SE site if we do get in.

Win at OSU and the path becomes more in focus for us.

IF we make it. Wouldn’t they want us in an easy flight or dive ?

we will send legions of fans even if it’s in GSO or Cleveland. I think the Spokane or the like would be dumb by NCAA if they want fannies in seats. We will bring lots (see: insight bowl drought).

They try to keep schools close to their region for the early rounds. When it comes to regionals though they try to avoid putting a better seeded team (1-4) at a disadvantage by having a lower seeded school having a "home court" advantage. So while RU may be put in the Albany pod, its not likely for them to see the East NYC region

That could be fun. I was watching a Jackie Gleason interview a long time ago and he was talking about some train ride he was on with other entertainers and he said, “The whole train was the bar car.”

Seeds 1-5 are protected in the first round only. Nothing stops Rutgers from going to MSG specifically, but lots of bracketing principals that make things tough to place Big Ten teams this year..
