From what little I've read, reduced from 48 to 36 teams for this year only due to the pandemic and the season having been moved from fall to spring.  Interestingly, women's tournament will still have 48 teams.

Yeah it’s just odd. Pandemic or not don’t see a reason to reduce the team size.  Doesn’t change anything for IU really.  We were going to get a bye either way

Women usually are 64. There are many more Women's teams than Men's teams in this country. Big Ten has Women's Soccer for all 14 teams and only 9 for men. I think its like high 100's for men and low 300's for women if I am not mistaken.
