2022–23 NCAA Division I men's basketball season - Wikipedia

️Sat Mar 20 2004

The following rule changes were recommended by the NCAA Basketball Rules Committee to the Playing Rules Oversight Panel for the 2022−23 season:^[1]

Twenty-six schools joined new conferences or became independents, including five schools from Division II which started transitions to Division I this season and one in the process of transition from Division I to Division III.

As noted previously, Incarnate Word had announced plans to move from the Southland Conference to the Western Athletic Conference, but backed out of that move and remained in the Southland. Lamar, which initially planned to make the opposite move in 2023, pushed this move forward to 2022.

The 2022−23 season was the last for at least 16 Division I schools in their current conferences, and the final season for a single Division II school before reclassifying to Division I. It was also Hartford's only season as a D-I independent, and the last season of athletics for St. Francis Brooklyn.

All five new D-I members in 2022–23 play on their respective campuses.

The following D-I programs plan to open new arenas for the 2023−24 season. or will move to a different pre-existing venue. All will move within their current campuses otherwise indicated.

An upset is a victory by an underdog team. In the context of NCAA Division I men's basketball, this generally constitutes an unranked team defeating a team currently ranked in the top 25. This list will highlight those upsets of ranked teams by unranked teams as well as upsets of No. 1 teams. Rankings are from the AP poll. Bold type indicates winning teams in "true road games"—i.e., those played on an opponent's home court (including secondary homes). Italics type indicates winning teams in an early season tournament (or event). Early season tournaments are tournaments played in the early season. Events are the tournaments with the same teams in it every year (even rivalry games).

In addition to the above listed upsets in which an unranked team defeated a ranked team, there have been eight non-Division I teams to defeat a Division I team so far this season. Bold type indicates winning teams in "true road games"—i.e., those played on an opponent's home court (including secondary homes).

The NCAA tournament tipped off on March 14, 2023, with the First Four in Dayton, Ohio, and concluded on April 3 at NRG Stadium in Houston. A total of 68 teams entered the tournament. Thirty-two of the teams earned automatic bids by winning their conference tournaments. The remaining 36 teams were granted "at-large" bids, which are extended by the NCAA Selection Committee.

Per the NCAA, an upset occurs "when the losing team in an NCAA tournament game was seeded at least two seed lines better than the winning team."^[132] The 2023 tournament saw a total of 13 upsets, with five in the first round, four in the second round, three in the Sweet Sixteen, one in the Elite Eight, and zero in the Final Four.

After the NCAA tournament field was announced, the National Invitation Tournament invited 32 teams to participate, reducing the field's size from 40. Eight teams were given automatic bids for winning their conference regular seasons, and 24 other teams were also invited.

Many teams will change coaches during the season and after it ends. Two teams changed coaches shortly before their first regular-season games. This is restricted to coaching changes prior to the start of practice for the next season; for changes after that date, see the 2023–24 season page.
