Thant's more than a 25% reduction of slots for Indiana teams. I don't see how this is anything but bad for Indiana teams. The field at Champs finally increases and we see zero benefit from it. I'm not real happy.
We actually only earned a few slots in-state:

at Crossroads
135 Finalist
5188 Finalist/RAS

at Purdue
5010 RAS
3301 Finalist
(135 had already qualified by that time)

The remainder came from regionals outside the state of Indiana. Since none of the remaining slots were guaranteed we are actually gaining slots

Both Indiana contests were loaded with out of state teams last year. Crossroads was brutal!
