Since the thought of playing a 1 or 2 seed in the second round again depresses me, I would love to see the tournament structured as 8 geographic 8 team unseeded regionals with an 8 team seeded final round.
I understand the idea of protecting the top seeds (Purdue and UConn get a first round gimme and practical second round home game), but at some point stacking the deck for the top teams is a little much. I also like the idea of a regional with easy access to all the teams playing in it. I noticed that Memphis tickets today were going for $5 and up while Brooklyn was $205 and up.
It will never happen, but I needed some handhold against the despair I feel about the deleted Cats playing UConn today!
