At this point, it appears that NCAA Tournament expansion is all but a formality. According to a report from Ross Dellenger at On3, the rumored 76-team NCAA Tournament is “inching closer,” and it could be in place as soon as next season. The plans are for a whopping 12 play-in games across two days at two sites. Expansion in this way would lead to more NCAA Tournament action, yes. With 12 games across two days, the flow of the play-in round would look and feel much more like the opening round.
