    This is just dumb.

    Let's reward Bradley or Evansville on 0-21 and 3-18 seasons by giving them passes to the tourney. Lame.


    So what are they gonna do? Play 4 games a day in pool play? LOL!

    ... No really, deuces.

      I have heard that rumor in the last couple of days as well.

      That's really unfortunate.

      Weak teams get a 3 game guarantee and I can see lower tier teams saving their "ace" to play the #1 team in their pool.

      That could effectively deny the two #1's a shot at the championship round, and give the conference automatic bid to the 3rd place or lower team, potentially damaging the chances of the #1 and #2 conference finishers an NCAA tournament berth. I can't wait for the meaningless games leading to the pool finals.

      That would suck, but third rate representative for a 3rd rate league is par for the course. Why change now?

      That is the intent of the MVC.

      They want to create a situation where any team has a shot at going to the NCAA. A double elimination is "unfair" in their eyes because bad teams don't really have any legitimate chance of winning it (which generally means teams 3 through 8 ).

              I'll be waiting and watching for a long time. I don't get why some people think football is a good idea right now. Don't get me wrong, I would love for it to happen, but it's just not a good idea financially right now.

                  I hope you're right, but I have my doubts. I think it is going to take alot more $ than people think.
