I'd argue for moving BU and Cornell to Manchester, UML-AF to Providence, WMU-PSU to Cincy, Union-UND in Fargo. Saves flights and boosts attendance.

Only 7 teams fly, only two (OSU/Union) of which fly when they could've been placed in a busable region.¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Re: 2017 Pairwise thread
Here's mine....Keeping attendance as good as possible:
Fargo: 1-Den v 16-MTU...8-Union v 10-NoDak
Cincy: 2-UMD v 15-OSU...6-WMU v 9-PSU (All the teams who can drive)
Prov: 3-Harv v 14-Prov...7-BU v 11-Cornell
Manch: 4-Minn v 13-NoDame...5-Lowell v 12-AFA (Swap the 2 eastern entire brackets if you want. Swap Prov for NoDame if you want.)
The main thing is that Cincy needs the closest teams possible, so you put the #1s in as required. Denver gets MTU, because there is a big fall from 15 to whatever MTU's PWR rank is. The 4s go either perfectly according to seeding, or you put Minnesota against Providence under the assumption that Harv v Prov isn't 'fair'.
The #2s go in according to seed, except that Cincy gets WMU. And, the 3s the same, except NoDak is host, and Cincy gets PSU.

Re: 2017 Pairwise thread
I'm going with Denver in Cincy. They're the #1 team and have to fly regardless, so I see them getting a relatively cushy western spot away from North Dakota rather than being sent to play against eastern teams in the east as the #1 overall, which would be way too much.
I have:
Cincinnati:
Denver vs Michigan Tech
Western Michigan vs. Penn State
Fargo:
Duluth vs Ohio State
Union vs. North Dakota
Manchester:
Minnesota vs Notre Dame
Lowell vs. Air Force
Providence:
Harvard vs. Providence
Boston vs. Cornell
I could see Denver getting Fargo in which case I'd have 1/16 and 2/15 swapped and everything else still the same.
