Big Eight Keeps Winning Postseason Formula
Lawrence AP reports the Big Eight will keep the current post season basketball format for 1978 with the tournament opening February 28 on campus sites and advancing to Kansas City for the semifinals and finals. Officials also propose starting the season later, shifting to a late December start and extending the schedule. Revenue from the post season exceeded $200,000, with about $400,000 from both tournaments combined. Additional actions include moving the outdoor track meet to Oklahoma State, a $1.50 per ticket surtax for facilities, and a record 15 athletic hardship cases.
