Unfortunately no...following on NIT's tracker while listening to JJ's show

TROY 21

Mississippi 19

[chrisfisher]

It is on channelsurfing.net !

[chrisfisher]

Man, I love that the internet site.

Did you know that MTSU is playing Missouri State right now? Missouri State up 21-15 with about 7 min in 1H left... Unfortunately, no channel surfing for this game.

Yep, the CIT

[chrisfisher]

Troy looked to be playing a great game when I first tuned in, but have since just lobbed up 3's and committed fouls and turnovers.

[chrisfisher]

No looking good for Troy... they are playing even more impatient and spastic than usual.

[CMJ]

Yeah, Trojans kinda fell apart at the end of the half

[Mad Hatter]

Would we have gotten an NIT bid if Troy had won the final? I know we wouldn't have received the auto bid, but I wonder if their selection folks would have picked us?

[CMJ]

On a positive note....MTSU is carrying the SBC banner well in their game

Doubtful at best

[CMJ]

Troy is trying to work their way back into their game....MTSU seems to have hit a wall in their contest

[CMJ]

Troy seemed to be back in the game for about 30 seconds...then they missed a layup and Ole Miiss hit a 3. Troy never recovered.

Ole Miss wins by 19

[CMJ]

Missouri State beats MTSU 87-79

Not a good night for the Belt

[NT91]

Has NT played in the NIT in the past?

Also is there a 3rd tournament for NCAA teams?

It was started about two years ago.

Also in the NIT how do they determine who is home and away.

KSU 78

NT 64

No, we have not played in the NIT.

There are currently four tournaments. The CIT started last year, and the CBI two years ago. MTSU was in the CIT.

NT should have been in the CBI or the CIT last year!

We probably didn't want to pay to be in them. If I recall the CBI charges like 40K to host a game. Now, we probably would've been sent on the road anyways, but there's probably something in the literature that says you must be willing to pay to host a game if needed in later rounds.

I think the CIT charges 20K for hosting games.

For some schools money isn't really an object. We don't draw that many fans, so it is for us.

Junk tournaments.

[foutsrouts]

At least it's too late for them to slam our RPI and give us a lower seeding because of this.
