The NCAA is expanding their college basketball tournament from the field of 65 to 68. Now this can only mean one thing. Money. Its strictly a business decision. The NCAA wants more teams because the more games that are played, the more financial revenue they will receive through this nationally televised event. This is,of course with the help of sponsors and college basketball's highly prestigious national powerhouses being apart of this ever-popular tournament.
Even with three spots now for the taking for many college basketball programs, there's still going to be a number of teams that will be left out. That's how its been for years. I guess I have no problem with it. I just hope the NCAA committee just doesn't expand the field to 1,000. The fact of the matter is that if numerous teams don't finish their season in the top 25 national rankings, nothing is truly guaranteed in terms of whether or not they'll obtain a good seed or a spot at all in future NCAA tournaments.
