It's been 64+ teams for a long time but used to be 48 in the early 80's I think. Then before that it was 16 and the only ones who got to go were the conference tournament winners. So if there were two dominant top 10 type teams in a conference, only 1 got to go to the dance. Then before that it was a field of 8 teams, one from each section of the country. But that's going back to Wilt Chamberlain times. I digress.
