Why are the womens' games after the mens'? Shouldn't the mens' games be in prime time? Not to be chauvinistic, but there is more interest in the gents.

The Men's finals are Sunday at 12 Noon (early time needed for the NCAA Selection Committee). They want to give the teams a little more time for recovery and preparation by playing early on Saturday.

One also assumes that the availability of TV slots has something to do with it. A lot of the major conferences have finals on Saturday night.

And isn't TV what this otherwise inexcusable tournament is all about?
