It will if the 8 seed gets knocked out in the first round say 4 years out of 5.

AttackCoug has hit on a good talking point for the expansionists--if the Committee cannot reliably judge 1 from 4, (50% failure rate), why do we trust them to judge 4 from 5?

Equilibrium is established when there are N playoff teams, and no realistic argument that the N+1th team deserved a shot at the championship.
