Do they have to do it the same for both?

With NIL money and the transfer portal the power conferences with continue to dominate college basketball. Reducing the tournament to 64 teams would make more sense, but the NCAA will never let a dollar get away from them if they can help it. The NCAA is responsible for the state college athletics is in now, and it is only going to get worse.

They’ll make it. The number of blowouts in the tournament show there are a lot of mediocre teams that get in.

Expanding to 76 teams is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. Especially on the women’s side. Good lord.

I agree. The tournament should have 16 teams not 76. If you examine the win loss record of the earlier rounds, it shows how ridiculous it is to even play those games. Since the inception of the NCAA tournament, I believe there’s been one victory against a one, two or three seed.
