Get ready for even more March Madness! The NCAA men's and women's basketball tournaments are set to expand once again, this time from 68 to 76 teams. Yahoo Sports' Ross Dellenger reports that the selection committees have already given the green light, with votes from the basketball oversight committees and the Division 1 Board of Governors expected to be mere formalities. This isn't the first time the tournament has grown—it started with just eight teams in 1939, expanded to 16 in 1951, 32 in 1975, and settled at 64 in 1985 before bumping up to 68 in 2011. Now, with 12 additional at-large spots on the horizon, fans can look forward to even more thrilling games in one of sports' greatest spectacles. While the exact format is still unclear, one thing's for sure: more teams mean more bracket-busting action, and we're all for it. Whether you're stocking up on your favorite team's gear or just love the chaos of March, this expansion is a win for basketball lovers everywhere.
