Then they should move all the automatic qualifiers up seeds and the teams that have to play in, the 16th seed to face the number 1 seeds since they weren't good enough to make the round of 64, IMO.
Why? For example, Ole Miss almost beat UK. Hampton or Manhattan won't come that close (or close at all most likely). Ole Miss is obviously a better team than either of those teams. Thus, Ole Miss shouldn't be "playing for a 16 seed."
It's okay to have smaller/shittier schools at lower seeds if they deserve lower seeds (which most of the time, they will), but I do like the idea that automatic bids shouldn't have to be in play-in games.

True. The 1 seeds may not like it, but the teams playing in would hate to play the 1 seeds as well.

This also gives an unfair advantage to the 6 seed since they will have fresher legs
