TBS unveiled a new NCAA Tournament selection show format this year, first revealing the 68 teams in the field before taking a commercial break and divulging the bracket.

The network said it would unveil the programs in alphabetical order and it did so with the teams that had clinched an automatic berth in the Big Dance after winning their conference tournaments. But, then came the at-large teams picked by the selection committee that Nevada was nearly 100 percent certain it would be in.
