Message: [QUOTE="HRE Otto IV, post: 5102301, member: 5685"] If I mathed this right... Of the 79 Power 5 teams (ACC, Big East, Big 12, Big Ten, SEC), 33 made the NCAAT last year (41.8%). The prior year it was 37 teams (46.8%). In 1985 those schools had 34 combined bids. So not much has changed. If we add 8 more at larges that percentage could go over 50%. Using 351 teams is false narrative when 95% of the non P5 schools have zero shot at an at large. So yes, expanding the NCAAT will water it down. [/QUOTE]
