I know that no matter how big you make it someone can feel left out, but 8 feels right to me that way you get at least one non P5 team possibly. Like Troy Calhoun said, (and I know hoops is different) but teams like Butler and VCU have gone to the finals in recent years regardless of playing in weak conferences.
Imagine this slate of games this weekend:
Bama vs Sparty
OSU vs Baylor
FSU vs TCU
Oregon vs Miss St
What an amazing day that would be.
