Not a fan of the double bye. I hope they eliminate this when we go to 16 next year.
My preferred solution:
Round 1 goes two days (2 x 4 games)
- Top 4 seeds play 13-16 day 1, 5-12 seeds play day 2
- still gives a rest day advantage for top seeds
Round 2 and beyond are as normal
Interesting. The WBB championship game will be on the same day as the play-in games of the MBB tournament.
WBB from March 7 to 12 (six days with no games on Sunday)
MBB from March 12 to 16 (five days)
Ten day span with two WBB days and two MBB days with only two games per day.
Both could have been done in 7 days total (with significant reduction of the number of times teams need to play on consecutive days):

Can’t do it in 7 days since BYU won’t play on Sunday.
That sounds reasonable.
Can any one post a typical bracket for when the Big 12 had 10 teams (last year and prior)? It started on Wed., correct, with the top two seeds getting a bye on Thurs.? I can't quite remember.
Again, seems reasonable from a reward/competition point of view.
On the other hand, more games equals more revenue for the Big 12 and the venue site (KC). Do you want to pass that up?
Yes, I was not factoring in the silly regulation about not playing on Sunday. I'm really surprised that the TV contracts allow BYU to keep an entire conference from competing on Sundays.
Allen Fieldhouse and Hilton are the top two. Tech and purple Kansas are in tier 2..
Wasn't there pictures of tech a couple weeks ago with TONS of empty seats??

Everyone that know Big Game Boomer knows he has a weird obsession with K-State and a strong hatred for KU
Why does anyone pay attention to Big Game Boomer? I've never understood why he gets the attention he does.
Now imagine how good that crowd would be without the awful song and extremely lame dance.
Lol! Even Hawk fans wouldn't agree with that.
