Albany is one of the locations for the first and second round games of the tournament. Iowa is currently projected to play there if they remain a #6 seed. Not sure if it has been mentioned on here, but the games are at the Times Union Center, which is Sienas home court. Fran obviously coached there for 5 years and lived in that area. He is worshiped there. I would bet anything that there would be a huge advantage and I am sure there would be a ton of supporters showing up to root on Fran and Iowa. That could make the difference when facing off against any of the potential #3 seeds in the 2nd round of the tournament.
Just something to think about...
