How should I place a rectangular rug under a horseshoe sectional?

I’m trying to figure out how to place a standard rectangular rug under a horseshoe shaped sectional with an oval coffee table making up the center.
Should the rug go under the whole sectional with room to spare behind it? That would have to be a very large rug.
Can the sectional be only partway under the rug?
I’m thinking about a persian without a medallion here if that helps paint a picture.

What colors would look good with burgundy rugs or carpet for walls?

I want to paint my walls a different color other than white, the color it is now. i have a hardwood floor right now, but have huge rugs that are burgundy and some are burgundy and the center is a tan color. my kids are 7 & 8 yr olds so i dont wont carpet just yet. but when i do i want a burgundy color. i have my living room thene is magnolias. the back ground color of the pictures are a tanish color. the color i think is the closest to matching is a pecan twist. i found the color swatch at wal-mart. anyway someone help please. and also what color couches would look good with all these colors? because i want to change it also. right now i have a huge blue sectional. i want just a regular couch and chair what colors would look good. thanks in advance!!
