B1G Basketball Tournament will have 15 teams

[Rufus]

The B1G will move to a 15-team conference basketball tournament with the addition of the PAC-4. The bottom 3 teams will not participate. The conference is sticking to a 20-game regular season conference schedule.

Looking at the BIG and ACC standings right now, it already feels ridiculous seeing how many teams they have, I can't imagine what it is going to look like next year. It's too many teams - just absurd.

For reference, the B1G (14) and ACC (15) both have less teams than the Old Big East (16) did

Not basketball related, but the B1G is getting close to announcing how they will handle travel for the Olympic sports......

New-look Big Ten to discuss Olympic sports schedules, travel costs in upcoming meetings

Sports like baseball and softball are juggling different scheduling models to adjust to a heightened travel cost.

and that 16-team Big East was a fun-assed basketball and football conference to be part of.

How good would it be if the last 3 were Cuse, Ville and BC?
