Home Court Advantage

It's interesting that in all the complaints I've heard this week over high seeds playing in rough places - UNC in Dayton being particularly criticized - no one mentioned Tennessee playing a team based outside of Charlotte in Greensboro. Now true, a fifteen seed that keeps it close is going to get the crowd on their side no matter what, but Winthrop appears to have sprinkled the crowd quite liberally with that bright yellow color. Good for them. (Winthrop's up one with 12:30 to play.)
