Which 3 do we have the best chance of beating now that Semi is leaving?

Villanova, Arizona, NC State, Purdue, Tennessee, Western Kentucky, or Northern Iowa.

Just like we were not going to be as good when Nic, Markus, and Tolbert left, right? We will be fine.

Anyone stayed at Atlantis before? Is it worth it?

Seems one could rent a 3-4 bedroom house on the beach for the price of Atlantis Resort and I am thinking that might be the way to go.

BTW - I have heard that you can get tickets on site day of games with no problem at all. This comes from UConn fans who participated two years ago.

Thanks for that info on the tickets I imagine once a team is out all those seats are available.

Definitely a home on the Playa with family would be much better.

I've booked a four-star on the Bayside all inclusive.

In regards to Atlantis they have a variety of different prices four different hotels on campus. $800 a night for a hotel plus plus. In their most expensive...

And although I have never spent the night at any of the hotels I have purchased a day pass and walked the entire Resort for the day. Slides and Disney World with an aquarium. - Pass

If you stay in the Comfort Suites right next door to the Atlantis, you get full access to the Atlantis waterpark/pools. It is only $230 a night and includes breakfast. Found that out after paying an arm and a leg earlier this year to stay in the Royal Towers at the Atlantis.

The Warwick is a half a mile away on the Bay Side it's $259 a night and includes all meals and alcohol if you choose 2.

Comfort Suites has a really good rating I didn't realize it was that close will have to Google Earth that.

Yeah, you don't get a beach/water view at comfort suites, but you have access to the beach/pools at Atlantis. It is also right across the street from the private harbor for where you can park your yacht.

Pretty sure the big building is the Atlantis conference center - where they play the games. The casino is closer to the royal towers.
