</div><div>Assuming we make it to the round of 16, does anyone know anything about Duke? What are our Elite 8 chances? Do we have any chance against USC for the Final 4?</div><div>
</div><div>We lost 4-3 heartbreakers to #2 overall seed Georgia twice, so you have to think we have an outside shot of reaching the Final 4 if we can play beyond that.</div>

No other top 25 teams in our regional. Duke should be a close, and winnable,match. They finished tied for 2nd in the ACC at 9-2. We lost to 11-0 Virginia 4-3 at home. I think the deciding match went to 7-5 in the 3rd set. #1 and 3-time national champion Southern Cal in the quarters will probably be the end of the line though.

I expect a win over Baylor, but they won on the road at Texas A&M and Kentucky, and they are two of the best teams in the nation. <div>
</div><div>USC's only loss this year was 4-3 against UCLA. They beat Texas A&M 5-2, Tennessee 4-0, UGA 4-1, and Florida 6-1. I would be surprised if they didn't win the national championship, and they might not have any close matches.</div>

But I don't think Baylor over Memphis is a given either. They've got some good road wins too and are actually ranked #32, even though they got a #3 seed. They play their home matches at the Memphis Racquet Club, which is the home of the ATP Morgan Keegan classic, which is a great facility and they can also sell recruits that they can come play on the same court that guys like John McEnroe andAndy Roddick play on. Overall, this is a pretty good draw.

it was pretty damn intense and fun to watch and I'll be there again for the regional.
