Yeah, it seems a little unfair that their first two rounds were on their home court, and the next two rounds are in their "backyard".Lady Huskers have a real shot at this one even though it is in Duke's back yard.
I hadn't noticed that. Yeah that is real unfair.If you think that is unfair, just look at U Conn's locations. 2 games at home, then 2 games in Bridgeport CONNECTICUT.
The women's game needs to have attendance, so they are allowed to play on home courts. With the ladies side of the game being very top-heavy, I find it interesting & beneficial to have teams like Gonzaga, Iowa, LSU able to host first/second round games if regular season attendance supports awarding them the games.
However, I do wish that they'd try to balance it out over the years - U Conn seems to always play at home and it may not be coincidence that the TV partner's HQ is in Connecticut.
Would make sense with a reputation for supporting women's sports and a brand new stadium. If Iowa City can host, Lincoln surely could.Did I hear that Lincoln is being considered next year for a quarterfinal region?
