Message: [QUOTE="Eric15, post: 1994782, member: 676"] College basketball is not a very popular sport nation-wide. It's tied for 6th with soccer after the four major pro sports and college football. So in that sense, college hoops desperately needs the NCAA tournament to stay relevant, because it's so incredibly entertaining to the casual fan. But Ish is right, it's a relatively lousy way of determining a champion due to the pure randomness of it. It's the ultimate Catch 22. Everyone wants to see Cinderella runs in the early rounds, but nobody wants to see George Mason in the Final Four. [/QUOTE]
