I read in ESPN the magazine that there's now a 32nd Division I men's
basketball conference (the Great West). It also said that it's a
strong possibility for the "play-in game". Semantics notwithstanding,
since there are 32 conferences now, won't there be TWO play-in - ER,
UH, "opening round" games? I thought the whole reason they invented
the Dayton game was because there was some rule about having to have
at least 34 at-large teams.

Never mind - apparently, the Great West champion doesn't even get an
automatic NIT bid, much less an NCAA one, but they do get one to the
third-tier tournament.
