Only 10 teams get in and just eliminate that first round. Four single byes. The bubble teams seeded 8-10 would still play.

It seems an extra day of rest can't hurt. If it ended Saturday that would easily be accomplished.

It's one more day to heal ankles and knees tweaked during play. If you played Sunday you need a day to get back on schedule where others are studying their opponent and practicing hard after resting Sunday.

I don't subscribe to the athletes are exhausted from play but their schedules are packed and the brain needs a little down time from the constant demands.
