I’d prefer we go back to 64. 32 is probably more than enough but the symmetry of 64 is cool. 

Bubble teams the last 2 years have gotten an extra at-large bid with the PAC 12 not in the equation.  That changes next year.    PAC 12 will be back and an auto-bid will take back 1 spot

7 out of the 11 IUs road games were Q1a games (Highest value quad)

1 of the 11 was Q1b.  So overall 8 of 11 games were in Q1 range 

1 of the 11 was Q2a range 

2 of the 11 was Q3 range 

I’m sure the staff can see these numbers and compare them to other bubble teams and see that if they get left out other bubble teams have easier chances for cheap Q2 road wins throughout their conference.   Schedule better in the non conference and you can overcome an evaluation misses.   Or it shows what kind of roster you need moving forward to compete with that kind of schedule.  
 

margin of error from getting left out to making it is small.     For instance if Maryland and Rutgers wins fall in the Q2 range this year IU is probably in the last 4 byes territory heading into the BTT.
