Following some confusion regarding the current and future rules regarding a host or higher seed being the home team throughout the NCAA Tournament, I reached out to an NCAA official seeking clarity on the matter.
Below is their response.
Here is the home team determination for…

Rest in peace to my mom. No one did a better job at pretending to have an interest in sports than you. As a single parent for the last 21 years, you didn’t have a choice. You touched everyone in your life and passed on the gift of sarcasm and sense of humor to your children.

The NCAA has confirmed host sites will once again be announced in advance of Selection Monday. The 16 hosts will be revealed, in no particular order, at 8:30 EST on Sunday.

Normally I’d tweet out my Omaha 8 for 2023, but I can’t narrow it down to 8. So, for now, my 16 regional hosts for 2023:
Tennessee
LSU
North Carolina
Arkansas
UCLA
Miami
East Carolina
Oklahoma State
South Carolina
Wake Forest
Maryland
Texas
Clemson
Oregon State
TCU
Florida

The more time goes on, the more I think we see Skenes start tonight for LSU. No info, just a gut feel. Jay Johnson doesn’t overthink things, as evident by Skenes going against Tulane, I don’t see him feeling comfortable using a starter out of the bullpen.

We’ve reached the only part of the SEC Tournament I dislike. Florida and Arkansas are undefeated in Hoover, and have beaten both of their opponents already this week, but a singular game decides who advances to the championship.

@CollegeBaseCNT
Vanderbilt tacks on another run in the top of the 9th. Alabama goes down in order, so the final is 9-2, and it’ll be the Commodores and Gators again Saturday, after the Aggies and Razorbacks kick it off at noon CDT.

This TCU team is multi-faceted. Abeldt didn’t have his stuff today, yet the Frogs were resilient, even with USC having the momentum in extras. I will continue to have TCU ranked
#1
until this team loses their ability to create magic- which is easier said than done for opponents
Pretty impressive from TCU Baseball to be 10-0 despite:
Bowen, Silva, and Tolle going through various degrees of offensive slumps.
Ben Abeldt working through some kinks.
Bullpen throwing a lot of innings to start the year.
