The NCAA Tournament is reportedly expanding to 76 teams, and while we all knew it was coming, it still feels unnecessary. March Madness didn’t need more mediocre teams, more play-in games, or extra “opening round” games that nobody really cares about.
The biggest problem? Smaller schools and 16 seeds are the ones getting punished. Teams that already earned their spot may now have to survive an extra game just for the chance to face a 1 seed.
We break down why expanding the NCAA Tournament could water down March Madness and make the early rounds feel even more pointless.
Do you support the NCAA Tournament expanding to 76 teams?
