People have been killed for less. ;)<br /><br />I think it is because the two program are in different conferences, but a Cyclone would never root for the Hawkeyes and vv. I was actually confused when I moved here and notice that a lot of Dawgs will root for the Cougars and vv. Totally foreign concept to me, especially since I moved to Ames from Auburn, AL and an Auburn Tiger would never, ever root for the Crimson Tide so I had 18 years of intense hatred for your rival.<br /><br />Also, regional hosts are guaranteed of being in their own region.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05453211097733451204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3422132707303068153.post-76721683838995866252014-11-22T11:11:22.247-08:002014-11-22T11:11:22.247-08:00I like your hypothetical bracket for Regionals but...I like your hypothetical bracket for Regionals but I wonder if they will put Nebraska in the Washington bracket. It has happened almost every time we have hosted Regionals and has made for some pretty amazing matches. But a rematch with Penn State would be pretty epic as well.

The ticket agent informed me that not only were there no reserved seat left, but only 200-300 general admission tickets remained, as well.

Those two losses exposed (in this writer's opinion) some significant deficiencies in their offense, defence and serve receive. Let's hope they figured out how eliminate them before this weekends games against good teams (especially UofA) so that, going into next Wednesday's game, they will be at full force and ready to handle the Cardinal.
