Wisconsin goes to Oregon and wins 62-59. They'll join North Texas in Vegas.

This is the furthest Bucky has ever gone in the NIT.

UC is playing a road game at Utah Valley ... and getting punked

 

[Jake]

Got Utah Valley as a pick 'em this morning before the line moved.

UVU won two games by double-digits - on the road at New Mexico and Colorado - to get this home game. Wasn't scared of the Juggalos.

Fun fact: which university in Utah has the highest enrollment? Hint: it's not BYU, Utah, or Utah State.

 

[Jake]

Conference USA won the CBI, has two teams in the NIT final four, and the league champion is Florida Atlantic.

Bucky lost a huge lead & the game to North Texas as they finished on a 9-minute scoring drought. Gard stopped a scramble play with a timeout with 6 seconds left when his guys looked like they had an opening, then they didn't get a shot off after the TO. Hilarious.

Laugh Out Loud.

Deal with it, Bucky.

9 minutes…9!!!

The NIT made a mistake leaving MSG. The replacement arena seems to have no buzz and looks dead. Who wants to go to some random arena in Vegas to see the NIT anyway?

3,500 people attended the NIT championship game last year in 20,000 seat MSG. Playing in Orleans Arena is a lot cheaper than MSG.

UAB and North Texas will play for the 4th time this season in the championship game. North Texas won the first two, UAB won the third.

 

[Jake]

North Texas 68
UAB 61

North Texas +2 and under 130. I love when a two-legged parlay works, just barely.

UNT ends the year 31-7. UAB 29-10. Should CUSA gotten 3 teams in this year?
