Pitt has never played close to home unless it was a good seed (and sometimes not even then......Milwaukee as a 3 seed twice). Other lower seeds routinely get to play close. #10 WVU at PPG. #7 OSU last year at PPG. #7 Cincinnati in Columbus. Murray State was in Lexington a few years ago. I cant remember them all but it happens. So with the NCAA Tournament being in Columbus, it would be awfully nice to get placed there. And though I'd hate and 8/9 seed, Purdue will be the 1 in Columbus so I could see Pitt there in the 8/9 game. Greensboro also isnt a bad drive.
