Message: [QUOTE="freescooter, post: 4875187, member: 1023"] To me it sucks thatbteams like CCSU have to go to the play-in. That should be reserved for 11-12 seeds from power leagues who did zilch to earn a trip to the tournament. Teams that had mediocre years. Basically I’d make the last 8 in play their way. Smaller programs earned their way by winning their leagues so deserve some respect. They earned the right to get to take on big time programs. I bet if you asked them the Central kids would much rather have their shot at Purdue or Kansas than have to play the MEAC champ. 11 or 12 seeds are marginal qualifiers at best. My view is no automatic bids should have to play an extra game to get into the round of 64. [/QUOTE]
