An Observer, despite cheering for a team that likely won't make Ivy Madness this year, I couldn't agree with you more. This season would have been beyond boring without the tournament.

I could see a better argument for a six-team tournament, with the top two seeds getting a first-round bye. At least in that circumstance there would be incentive and competition. However, I think it would dilute the current drama for finishing 3d and 4th, as those teams now would be guaranteed a place in the tournament. Thus, I think the current system is a better solution.
