The NCAA is expected to finalize an expansion of the men’s and women’s tournaments to 76 teams soon after the completion of this year’s March Madness tournament, per Yahoo Sports' @RossDellenger.

Barring something unforeseen, “it will happen,” a high-placed source told Dellenger.

The proposal would add eight games to the First Four, with 24 teams playing in an opening round before advancing into the second round.





So, more “Play-in” games then? ;);)

These conflicts of interest in sports always suck.

On one hand, I wanted to lmao at Duke's choke job................but then you instantly realize that slimeball Dan Hurley gets to move on to the Final Four, where they will undoubtedly beat Illinois, and at least have the chance to win another f***ing national title.
Because he’s also one helluva coach.

Would be nice if officials still called traveling.

Uconn player that was trapped in the press break drug his foot TWICE. Dragging at least a foot each time.

34% FG shooting won't win you many games.

How Illinois got to 62 points:

.....6-26 (23%) from 3
13-30 (43%) from inside the arc
.............................................................
19-56 (34%) Overall Shooting

18-23 (78%) FTs

UConn matched their physicality.

Duke players and fans must be thinking "what if" they hadn't choked in the closing seconds....
What Fran said. We couldn’t match their physicality. UConn’s guards are also really good defensively and strong and rebound well. And Reed was the best player on the floor as he’s been the whole tournament. The winner of this next game will not have a cakewalk.
