Expanding the NCAA men's basketball tournament bracket to 96 teams – or even 128 – from the current 65 sure is a hot topic these days. And for good reason; the history of the NCAA tournament is one of gradual expansion since it was first played in 1939 with a mere eight teams. Now it's a phenomenon that garners billion-dollar TV contracts and inspires millions of Americans to wager billions more in informal betting. So where does it go from here?

NCAA Tournament's Founding and Early Growth

The first men's basketball tournament was held in 1939 with eight teams in a three-round format, according to All Brackets. The bracket was divided into Eastern and Western regionals. All of the games in each regional were held at a specific site, and the winners of each regional met at a different site for the championship. The eight-team format continued for the next 11 years.
