NCAA Tournament set to expand to 76 teams. What will it look like?

The men's and women's NCAA basketball tournaments are set to expand from 68 to 76 teams, with the change expected to take effect for the 2027 tournament. Two Division I athletic directors and three men's basketball coaches confirmed to USA Today Sports there is a strong expectation the expansion will happen, with one coach saying they would be 'stunned if it doesn't.' The move, long rumored and reported by ESPN, is said to be on track to be formally announced in the coming months.
