Breaking News- NCAA Releases Changes to NCAA DI Men’s BKB Tournament

Committee changes bracketing guidelines for NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball tournament NCAA

“One of the changes addresses how soon teams from the same conference can play each other in the tournament, which will be based on the frequency with which they met during the regular season and postseason conference tournament.

This means that teams from the same conference that played only once during the season can now face each other as early as the third round of the championship. Subsequently, teams from the same league that met twice during the year will not potentially play each other until the regional semifinals. Also, teams from the same league that played each other three times during the course of the season cannot play until the regional championship game.”
