You can read more about the NCAA classic games here and watch them all on NCAA on Demand on YouTube.
How are March Madness teams selected?
A team can win a bid for the NCAA tournament in two ways. The 32 Division I conferences all receive an automatic auction, which they award to the winning team of the post-season conference tournament. Regardless of a regular season team's performance, if she is eligible for the post-season game and wins her conference tournament, she receives an NCAA tournament bid. These teams are called automatic qualifiers.
The second avenue for an invitation is a global offer. The selection committee meets on Sunday of the selection, having played all the regular season and conference tournament games, and decides which 36 teams that are not automatically qualified have the pedigree to win an invitation to the tournament.
Who is on the March Madness Selection Committee?
School and conference administrators are appointed by their conference. Those selected are for a five-year term and represent a representative sample of Division I members.
Currently, the chairman of the committee is Bernard Muir, director of sports at Stanford.
Here are the rest of the committee members:
- Mitch Barnhart, Director of Sports, University of Kentucky
- Tom Burnett, Commissioner, Southland Conference
- Janet Cone, Athletic Director, University of North Carolina at Asheville
- Bernadette McGlade, Commissioner, Atlantic 10 Conference
- Michael O'Brien, Vice President and Director of Sports at the University of Toledo
- Jim Phillips, Vice President, Sports and Recreation, Northwestern University
- Chris Reynolds, Vice President, Intercollegiate Sports, Bradley University
- Craig Thompson, Commissioner, Mountain West Conference
- Kevin White, Director of Sports, Duke University
What is the importance of seeding?
The NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament is made up of 68 teams. On selection Sunday, before each tournament match, these teams are ranked from 1 to 68 by the selection committee. The best university basketball team is based on regular season performances and conference tournaments. She sits at No. 1. are eliminated in the first round of the tournament (the first four), leaving us a field of 64 for the first round.
These 64 teams are divided into four regions of 16 teams each, the teams being ranked from 1 to 16. This ranking is the starting seed of the team.
In order to reward the best teams, the matches of the first round are determined by opposing the first team of the region to the last team (n ° 1 against n ° 16). Then the next higher against the next lowest (No. 2 against No. 15), and so on. In theory, this means that seeds 1 have the easiest opening match in parentheses.
