I'm hoping against hope it's in Raleigh, the only first round site that's in driving distance from me. The possibilities are Austin, Minneapolis, Stanford, LA, East Lansing, Hartford, Pittsburgh, and Raleigh. I'm hoping for UMBC's sake that we end up in Pittsburgh since I think it's the easiest trip for our fan base, but I want Raleigh for purely selfish reasons. And of course, I'd be TOTALLY pushing my luck for us to be seeded in the Greensboro Regional (via Raleigh) and win our first two games--now THAT would be awesome!!

At any rate, we'll know for sure as of tonight--the special's on ESPN at 8.

Haha, I still think that Raleigh is close enough they'd make an effort to organize busses down there for students who want to go.

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! =D I'm so excited. It's like Christmas came early!

OK absolute, out-of-my-fucking-mind dream scenario (based on possibilities from ESPN's current bracketology [http://sports.espn.go.com/ncw/bracketology] and a healthy dose of suspension of disbelief) UMBC gets seeded as a #16 in the Greensboro regional, plays first round in Raleigh versus DOOK AND BEATS THEM, goes on to win the matchup again the 8/9 seed, and continues on to play right around the corner at the Greensboro Coliseum and, fuck it, while we're dreaming wins it all.

And while we're at it, I want a house, a corvette, and a million dollars.
