You've gotta feel for the teams that win their conference tournaments and qualify for the NCAA tournament. (sort of)  They play on Tuesday.  Nobody running a pool requires that you have your bracket in prior to this game.  It's a freebie.  Why?  Because they're just going to lose to the #1 seed, so who (outside of fans of the two unfortunate teams) cares.

Here's how to make the play-in exciting.  (Since I guess we can't just have a 64-team field.)  Make it between the last two at large bids.  This year that would include two of the following: Old Dominion, Illinois, and Arkansas.  That way, teams who earned their way in by winning their tournaments are actually in.  Plus the play-in matters for your brackets and would be exciting to watch.

Thats a flippin awesome idea, start a petition.

Makes less preassure for the committee too because the "last two in" have to duke it out,or in for that matter

The problem with that idea is that the play-in game by the two 12 seeds will have to play on a Tuesday and then turn around and play Friday and Sunday.  It would be an unfair advantage to the opponents of the play-in opponent as the opponent would be running on fumes by the time Sunday rolled around.

Why not just have a 64 team bracket? It was good enough for the women... ::)

That's a trade-off I'd be willing to make.  You can argue that they should have played better during the season.  I just think if a team automatically qualifies, let them be in the actual tournament.

I'd be happy with that, but it seems we're stuck with 65.

That is of course until the brain trust expands it to 128.  ::)
