346 total teams (357 really but I read 11 are ineligible for one reason or another).

180 teams play in round 1. Afterward all teams left play.

256 teams play round 2

128 teams play round 3

64 teams play round 4

32 teams in round 5

Sweet Sixteen is round 6

Elite Eight is round 7

Final Four is round 8

Championship is round 9


I believe March Madness is 68 teams and 7 rounds right now, so this is only 2 extra rounds.

A lot of TV viewing? But can we all take Sir Charles B.

Stand by to watch early-round games on the Home Shopping Channel. Support your team and buy a toaster oven.

TBH I would be fine with Barkley commentating about 90% of the sports I watch. I would pay nice money to listen to him and Faldo do a PGA event

I saw on the ESPN crawl yesterday that the nzaa shot this idea down.
