The SAC should go back to the way District 9 did it in its final years. The first round was on home courts of the higher seed. That would have a dramatic impact on a tournament like this year's -- you really think OBU would have been able to win at Siloam Springs? Make the regular season count for something.

Then have the semifinals and final at a neutral gym. There are plenty of gyms in the OKC area to do this. Use one of the gyms of a SAC team that's not in the semis -- SNU this year would have been perfect. Or rent UCO's gym or one of the larger high school gyms. Or if you want to splurge, try the Myriad or Ford Center.

It's simply not fair for a team playing its biggest game of the season to have to play on the road against a lower-seeded opponent. USAO got bit at LCU a few years ago. OC got bit at OCU in 2003, and OCU could get bit at OBU this year. That's not right.

Such important games should be either on a neutral court or on the home court of the higher seed -- period.
