Given the same situation, at least there's not a west coast team that's even arguably a #2. Of course, it's better for the fans to play in Omaha and then St. Louis, but I doubt they would get out of that region.

ku should not be the first 2 seed though. They were ranked #8 before the game, they will drop at least a couple of spots in the new poll, and they now have 5 losses. One could argue they are much closer to the last 2 seed than the first.
