i don't know your stats/ecs/connections though, so you may have a much better chance that the "average minority"

I disagree strongly since it's such a general statement. On some campuses it is not harder at all. It depends on the campus. I can definitely think of a few where it probably is extremely hard, but I also know of a few where it doesn't seem to make a difference. (In other words, that's an overly simplistic answer and isn't true for all schools in the south.)

You do not know whether or not your race was the reason you didn't get a bid.
