Option 1: Dayton

Option 2: Minneapolis

Barring an enormous meltdown, and even with the late season five game stretch, MU most likely is looking at a protected seed this year. Dayton and Minneapolis are the two spots MU will be optioned at. Dayton site will have a 1 seed vs the Play in Winner, then either Pitt, Louisville, MSU or us (currently) in the opposite set of games.
Minneapolis is wide open with no clear cut "local" team. Lunardi has us currently playing there. I'm guessing sentiment will be since we played there in '03, people will pine for a return to past glory.
Dayton is sold out, Metrodome obviously will have tickets available due to it being a dome.
Both sites are Friday/Sunday sites.
