Gene Smithson came close to having 3 teams in the Final 4.

**1979Shocker** · July 28, 2020, 09:56 PM

I know these are just simulations, but do they only play the starters? If so, what if a player fouls out?

If only the starters play, that kind of give a disadvantage to Gregg Marshall's teams, which are known to have great depth.

Each team has at least 12 players, and team's members can foul out. I'll try and include more detail since there are only two games tomorrow. The Championship will include a complete play-by-play of the game, including all substitutions.
