Stupid. There are already teams in with no shot at all of winning. The tourney is perfect the way it is now.

Basically expanding to 128 would mean one out of three D-I teams would make the tournament...which kinda defeats the purpose, doesn't it? 96 might not be a bad number, but even then, that's a stretch to me. |

Doubling the number of teams in the tournament just lessens the significance of earning a bid. Keep it how it is.

I can see it now, instead of March Madness, we have all-spring madness with how long this would take.

This idea has came up the last couple of years. I don't like it at all. You wouldn't strengthen anything. Your bubble teams would have losing records. I don't see it happening, but I also didn't see a third Thanksgiving Day Football game either....

The most I can see them adding is 3, and having a play-in game for all 16 seeds.

Screw that idea. My brackets suck enough already. The last thing I need is more rounds...
And I don't see what the big deal is here. If your team isn't good enough to basically even have a .500 record, why should they have the same shot as a team that only lost 3 times to win a National Championship? Sure it would be easier for the 3 loss team, but it's the same amount of games they have to win...

After all.... your team gets denied every year lol.  |

Yeah, because they had a booster paying for all their recruits in the early 90s  |
