NIT Discussion


Recommended Posts

I would think Northwestern will have a first round home game in this, perhaps Illinois State as well. Will Bradley make it too? Perhaps they'll go to the 3rd tournament again, and actually I believe there is a 4th tournament this year as well.

I guess I'll watch Miami since there isnt else going on during the week but whatever really.

 

Miami probably would get a high seed for the NIT but they wont have any home games because their arena is booked for a music series for the week. hahaha

Miami wins 78-66 at Providence. I didnt watch the game so I dont know how excited Providence was but it appears we play pretty well regardless. Pisses me off because if we played that well vs VT in the ACC tournament we might be playing tomorrow or Friday in the NCAAs.

I've never had a sports team leave me heartbroken so much times in 1 season.

ISU losses 83-79 after somehow KSU got to inbound the ball with 1 second left instead of ISU after the ball went out of bounds on a free throw? Love to see what happened there. Then they took a shot to rub it in.

 

 

 

5 overtime losses I can't believe this season. Only 1 double digit loss all season.

Davidson @ St. Mary's is about to start. This is going to be tournament quality basketball. 2 pro guards against each other.

 

Patty Mills is spectacular. Damn shame he got hurt. St. Mary's is better than probably half the schools that actually made the tourney.

Yeah, really is a shame. Both of these guys could come back so maybe they can make the tournament more interesting than the chalk fest we've seen this year. Mills has 17 at the half, Curry with 11.

 

Curry finished with 26 with 9 boards and 6 assists. Mills had 23 with 10 assists to only 1 turnover. I hope they both comeback to make the tourney next year.

So I haven't watched any of the NIT, but I just caught the very end of SDSU/St. Mary's game and saw the SDSU fans rush the court. Anyone that actually watched the whole game know why, or were they seriously just that excited to get into the semifinals of the NIT?

In SDSU's defense, it is a big deal for them. Without looking it up, when was the last time they had a successful team? This was their last home game of the year, they won the right to play in NYC at MSG on national television against BCS schools, they are in the NIT Final Four (something that means something for mid-majors)...i'm willing to give them a pass on the rushing the court. They were all just excited. I'm sure i would be too if I was a student there.
