Minimum game requirement to play NCAA tournament is 11 regular-season games.
See Section 2-3 of https://ncaaorg.s3.amazonaws.com/cha...ampsManual.pdf
Looking at all teams in the East region, only FOUR will have met that minimum: St Thomas Aquinas (11-1/ECC), Roberts Wesleyan (7-6/ECC), Daemen (7-4/ECC), and D'Youville (0-12/ECC)
There are ZERO teams from the CACC with the minimum game requirement, yet each conference shall be awarded an auto-bid...so does the CACC champion get a waiver on the minimum requirement? And if Molloy wins the ECC, do they get a free pass? NE10 is not playing a championship, so we don't have to worry about them.
Will the NCAA overflow some of the more crowded regions into the East to fill all of the seeds? Or does the East bracket just get watered down?
