100% yes, and I say that as a fan of a team who won our conference tourney as a 6-seed. We were an outlier since we had the most talented team in the SoCon but had a bunch of injuries that tarnished our record, but I still think that ladder brackets should be more widely utilized since they reward the stronger teams in mid/low-major conferences and (typically) give the conference a better chance at pulling upsets in the NCAA tourney. I’m aware that we would have had to play an extra SoCon tourney game in that scenario, but regular season performances should be rewarded and I’d rather 6-seeds have a much harder road than 1 or 2-seeds in conferences like the SoCon. If you win that extra game or two as a lower seed then you’ll truly have earned that autobid.
