Message: [QUOTE="HRE Otto IV, post: 5103270, member: 5685"] I rather have 64 teams than 68 teams. I rather have 68 teams than 76 teams. I rather have 76 teams than 96 teams. I rather have 40 Power 5 only teams than anything over 76 teams. I think anything over 76 is a complete farce of an NCAAT and makes the regular P5 conference season/tournaments meaningless. I also think they need to take a page from the Women's game and give the Top 4 seeds home games in the first two rounds. The point of the NCAAT is to crown a worthy champ. That happens when a greater percentage of the Top 25 is in the Sweet 16. Having a team outside the Top 25 get hot for two weeks, makes your champ more random. The Power 5 would be all for this. Really the Men's game is the only one that doesn't give you a home court/field advantage in the early rounds. A protected seed on a neutral court does not offer the same benefit. [/QUOTE]
