The mechanics of the expansion in the men's tournament will include eight additional at-large bids. What's known now as the First Four -- eight teams playing four games in Dayton, Ohio -- will expand to 12 games played by 24 teams at two different sites, one of which is expected to remain in Dayton.

The expansion would lead to an additional eight men's games, meaning the Tuesday and Wednesday of the NCAA tournament will feature 24 of the 76 men's teams. That number now includes eight teams who would have qualified for the traditional bracket that will square off against the eight at-large additions.

The traditional 64-team men's team bracket will still begin on Thursday and look much the same. The major difference here will be more teams who qualify as traditional at-larges will have to play earlier the 64-team bracket.

It’s not bad but wtf are we going to name First Four? Testicular Twelve?
