I think that 4 is enough. 6 is a better idea than 8, but you'd still be asking middle class income fans of the 3, 4, 5 and 6 seeds to shell out another $600 for the first round ticket, plus other expenses.
Hell, my wife and I make a damn good living and (assuming MSU's best case scenario) I'm trying like hell to determine how I can afford to to go to the SEC CG, the first playoff game, and the NC game. And I have advantage because I live 1.5 hours from NO so I could make the 1st round a day trip. In addition, I can fly for free to the other venues due to flyer miles, but still, that going to add up to be a ton of cheese.

With the present 4 teams, you're getting bitching from #'s 5-6-7. With 6 teams, all you'd be doing is adding additional unhappy teams to the mix. Numbers 1 & 2 will usually always be easily identified. The rest, as is evident in today's polls, will always have a legit bitch.

You should go all in on this year. Might be a while before you have to expense this again. Just saying.

You have nothing to worry about. You are Miss. St. remember? You have zero chance to beat Alabama.
