I've always thought scrapping the East/West thing in the PSAC Tournament would be really cool -- i.e. the PSAC gets seeded for the tournament regardless of East/West association. We've seen numerous years where one side is far superior to the other (both ways). But, obviously with that comes the travel headache as our teams are so spaced out geographically.
The other pro (my opinion) is you avoid some 'Round 3' games. For instance, I'd find it much more interesting as a fan to watch IUP play Millersville next Wednesday night instead of playing Seton Hill for the third time.
I guess these are just some of the headaches with having 670 teams in the PSAC. LOL.
I don't dislike the current format ... just talking out loud.
I've often heard people question why the final -- since we love this East / West format -- isn't actually East vs. West. So many years we see a West vs West or East vs East final. But, in theory, that puts the two hottest teams up against each other. I remember 6-7 years ago when Ship beat IUP in OT at the KCAC on Final Four Saturday. Everybody in the league knew that was the actual final -- it just got played a day early.
