When the NCAA adds the four extra teams to the tourney will WIS do the same?

I guess most of me hopes not.

Its not really worth the trouble of adding 4 more teams...now if they were bumping it to 96...I think you can make the case (I personally don't want to see that in RL BB or in HD) but 4 teams that won't win the tournament is probably more trouble than its worth.

64 is a good number, it works well for everyone, everyone needs to win 6 games to win the title, dare I say its just perfect. Regardless of what RL does, don't fix what isn't broken.

WIS has 64 teams in the NT in each division, while the NCAA has 65 in DI but only 61 in DIII.

So, I doubt WIS will change

wis won't, because that would add a cycle where only a handful of coaches were playing, same reason the 65/64 play-in game doesnt exist here - longer seasons equals less money for wis

yeah only a move to 96 would likely reverberate in wis

this is another one of those things where i feel like real life is not very relevant. as long as its moderately close, thats more than enough in my book. i just want the part that takes the ratings and settings and spits out a result to be realistic, the rest should be designed to make the game more enjoyable.

in this case, waiting a cycle for the bottom 8 NT teams to play a game is not very enjoyable for the 95% of the people who aren't those 8 teams. and i don't think its much better, if any, than being a bottom 4 or top 4 team in the PIT. so i am all for not changing. plus that takes away time that could be spent on something else.
