how about what Duke is going to face. 2-7 game and playing almost a road game. No way should a 10 seed in South Carolina have been allowed to play in Greenville. For either round.

I didn't want to seem like a crybaby and point that out. Of course Syracuse's path to a title with Carmelo was eased by a bunch of semi home games.
