Someone get a map, please.
Some crazy cartographer has to be messing with college basketball.
It might not make sense, but it's the type of geography that occasionally happens in the NCAA Tournament, only this year is more unusual than most. Both of us are playing in Philadelphia in such big games. Curious tournament travel has been commonplace since the expansion of the field to 64 teams and the imposition of restrictions against conference champions meeting other teams from their conference. That's why the Pac-10 can have four Sweet 16 teams playing in three regions this week. Only this year's matchups have made for meetings of familiar faces in rather strange places.
