Two of the arguments for the IL Tournament winner getting an automatic bid that I have enjoyed the most are: 1. Harvard will receive a bid no matter what next year and/or subsequent years therefore the IL can send the IL #4 seed to the Big Dance if they win the IL Tournament and no one will really notice when they lose as Harvard will reach the round of 16. 2. The IL sucks so it does not matter which team that you send to the Big Dance.
