I'm sure this has been discussed but I couldn't quickly find it. Why were we eliminated with just one loss? Thought it was double elimination tournament. Have something to do with all the rain on Thursday?
I've always thought it was a genius setup.Keegan99 said:agcrock2005 said:

It's to limit the number of games a team potentially has to play. Florida will be playing their 7th game in 6 days today. That's already excessive for a college team.
The tourney is setup to give bubble teams an opportunity to claim their bids and strong teams the opportunity up improve their standing, without exhausting any team prior to regionals.

Reducing the teams harms the SEC bubble teams. They can't play their way into the tourney sitting at home. I don't see that happening.AgE2theBONE said:PJYoung said:I've always thought it was a genius setup.Keegan99 said:agcrock2005 said:

I definitely respect you and your opinion, but I must disagree.
It doesn't feel right that a team should be able to take a loss prior to the semifinals, then eliminate a zero-loss team in one game.
I'd prefer we reduce the number of teams in the tourney and make the whole thing double elimination. Or keep it at 12 teams and make the whole thing single elimination.
But I realize the goal here is to possibly get another SEC team into the 64-team field via the autobid, so I'm not likely to get my way.

I think ACC-style pod play is the only way to go for a 12 team tournament.
