UAB gets the automatic bid to NIT by losing to FAU...hope we sneak in, too.

The regular season winner of the conferences get an auto bid to the NIT if they fail to win their conference tournament. Since FAU won the regular season title, they would've gotten an auto bid. Same as last year--UNT won the regular season title but lost to La Tech in the CUSA tournament. Ergo, auto bid to NIT.

So is it definitely we aren’t making the NCAA

No. It's not definitely. Since the NET has been around, I believe only 5 teams with a NET of 40 or better have missed out on the big dance. We'd be number 6. The first 5 were actually power conference schools snubbed for mid-majors. There were no bid thiefs this year so we could still make it unless they want power conference teams with NETs in the 60s like Michigan, Arizona State, Pitt, and Clemson. Seems like a long shot but not all hope is gone.
