The idea is to make the games fit into a two-hour window, which is what the networks want.

Why a quarter break, though? Just have a media TO at the first stoppage under 10.
Having 2 extra last second shots doesn't help the game.
I've been advocating going to halves in the HS game for years, and now NCAAW is going to go away from them.
