Number 1 and 2 seed question..

Not trying to be a jerk but I'm genuinely curious where you thought it would be played, if not at the highest remaining seed?

Not trying, yet succeeding

In the past some sports (not the NFL I don't think) have used firm brackets...meaning that the 1-seed bracket was the home team. In that case the team who beat the 1 seed would be the home team.

It's a bad way to do things, which is why I don't think anyone does that any more.
