The tournaments' winners will receive the League's automatic bids to the NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Championship. The teams that finish with the best records from the 14-game, regular-season conference schedule will continue to be recognized as Ivy League champions, and that champion fails to win the tournament, will be invited to the National Invitation Tournament, per NCAA policy on regular season champions, should they fail to receive an NCAA bid.^[1]
