Division I vs. Division III
With the exception of a Syracuse versus Virginia and maybe one or two others, I prefer watching a good Division III playoff game to watching a Division I game. When the Final Four is played each May, I always watch the Division III title game because it is faster and more exciting. The Division I games are over coached and extremely slow, especially with all the substitutions at midfield. The ball has to be passed around the horn, so everybody can get a touch and get into the flow of the game.
That's silly.
Once you get ball over the midfield line, every player's priority should be to score, and the first move should be going to the rack instead of working it to the back so an attackman can shoot the ball. When you watch a Stevenson versus Salisbury game, both teams just blow up and down the field. If you turn your head for a second, you could miss a lot of action. I think that's the way the game should be played. And it appears the players have the most fun playing it that way as well.
