Message: [QUOTE="Consigliere, post: 2524247, member: 559"] I think that with as tight as the bubble is this year there needs to be real discussion about expanding the field again. I believe there are now over 350 schools playing Division I basketball and while none of the potential bubble teams is a serious national championship contender, it's not hard to visualize a scenario based on matchups where several, if not most, could conceivable advance to the Sweet 16. Seems like a no-brainer to make all of the 12 and 16 seeds subject to play-in games and go to 72. If Dayton remains the first site it would mean adding afternoon doubleheaders on Tuesday and Wednesday. Not sure what the magic is with Dayton, but why not have four regional play-in sites to cut down on travel and to have all eight games completed on Tuesday? [/QUOTE]
