There were also some very strange seedings, such as Duke #3 overall, Michigan State getting a 5 seed despite being #11 in the country (while Wisconsin, a much inferior team from their own conference, gets a 4 seed), on and on. Temple probably should have been higher than a 5 seed.

I would rather keep 64 (65 was just plain weird in the first place) after an entire play-in round for bubble teams from the real conferences and the automatic qualifiers from the humpty dumpty conferences. The latter group can still say they went to the dance and will still be gone after one game. As much as I love the tournament, it certainly does not consist of the 65 best teams in the country.

You don't think the Blue Devils victory in the ACC Tournament justified it?
