March Madness Just Got Bigger: Are You Ready for the Shocking Expansion to 76 Teams?
March Madness is expanding.
The men’s and women’s NCAA basketball tournaments will grow to 76 teams starting next season, following a vote by the NCAA selection committees, Thursday, May 7.
CBS Sports’ Matt Norlander reported Thursday’s vote was unanimous: “Not a single dissenting vote.”
OPINION: Expanding the NCAA Tournament won’t make it better
It’s the first time the NCAA tournament will expand on the men’s side since it went for 65 to 68 teams in 2011, and the women’s side followed suit in 2022. However, it’s the first major expansion since the men went from 53 to 64 in 1985, and the women’s jumped from 48 to 64 since 1994.
