On Monday, the NCAA revealed that there will be no expansion to its men’s and women’s college basketball tournaments, confirming that March Madness will retain 68-team fields for the 2025-26 season.

The NCAA Tournament expanded from 64 to 68 teams in 2011. The change introduced the First Four round, a set of pre-tournament games in which the four lowest-seeded at-large teams and four lowest-seeded conference champions compete for spots in the traditional 64-team bracket.

NCAA President Charlie Baker weighed in men's and women's basketball tournament expansion and whether any change could be made this season.
