The women's selection committee wants to do everything it can to put teams as close to home as possible in the early rounds, as well as to create storylines if there can be any had (See LU's undefeated girls facing undefeated UT in mid-90's). Of course, LU's more recent experience shows that it can't always work perfectly for everyone with regard to travel distance.
Its done this way in a concerted effort to grow the sport. Its also why host schools automatically play at home if they are selected, as opposed to the men where that's expressly forbidden. It makes Creme's attempt at predicting region (as well as seed, for that matter) mean far less than, say, Lunardi's with regard to the men.
