Quote:How many teams get a shot at the title in college bball?


Is it 2 like it used to be with football or 4 like it is now?

 

True, the field in CBB is larger, but if your argument is that SoS helps to make the playoffs (or in CFB system, the bowl games...which let's face it...Universities STILL want because of the money they bring and why there's not a full fledged playoff system in CFB), then that argument applies to CBB also.

 

Besides, as I commented earlier, I can see scenarios...specific scenarios that would benefit your team why you'd pull for another team in your division/conference.

 

But that's not what happens with SEC. Fans from teams who were already eliminated...sitting at home, with nothing to gain from the games, pulled for Auburn or Bama to win their respective championship titles...all for the sake of SEC supremacy.

 

Newsflash...

 

Just because they were good enough to win the championship, doesn't mean squat to how good your team or your conference was.
