In response to penn nation
Crazy, huh? So next year I suggest that we go to 7 team tourney with Champion receiving first round bye - a rather modest reward for its 14 game success.. If there are co-champs, then 6 teams, etc. From there it gets fun.
Also, higher seed gets home floor in all games, including the final. Even if games are not played in the vaunted Palestra, there will be more venues with all spectators having skin in the game. If, in a given game, say Dartmouth or harvard has the higher seed, it wins the advantage of its band box gym and an energized crowd. Free peanuts for everyone -- except #8. Well, life doesn't promise everyone second chances
