NCAA presents new basketball tournament models that would expand field by 4 or 8 teamssports.yahoo.com/sources-ncaa-presents-new-basketball-tournament-models-that-would-expand-field-by-4-or-8-teams-214628269.htmlCollege basketball moved one step closer this week to an expanded NCAA men’s basketball tournament. NCAA officials on Wednesday presented to Division I conference commissioners at least two models of an expanded field, one with an additional four teams and another with an additional eight teams, commissioners told Yahoo Sports. Officials declined to speak publicly about the models. The models would expand the 68-team field to 72 or 76 teams, with additional at-large selections as well as at least one additional First Four site. Any expansion would begin, at earliest, in the 2025-26 season. If the men’s event expands, the women’s tournament is likely to undergo a similar expansion.

It will not help the smaller conferences. This just means that all the teams in the ACC and SEC will get into the tournament now.
