I understand what you're saying, but an 8 team field just means it was even harder to make the tournament. In fact, I would think that an 8 team field would result in less of a luck factor and more of rewarding the long regular season.

Not until 1975 did they allow more than one team from a conference ('74 the two best teams in the country were Maryland and eventual champ NC State). They expanded to 32 teams.
And until then, the West Region meant West.
