I've never liked NCAA tourney finals on campus sites, because it is
inherently unfair. Like you, I also do not like 16 teams at the finals site, because of the problems you cited and because it's simply too many matches, which limits the number of sites which can host. I don't just like this idea, I love it, and I can't wait for it to be implemented. |
