March 11, 201214 yr QUOTE (Heads22 @ Mar 11, 2012 -> 03:49 PM) Would Illinois accept an invite? They won't get one.
March 12, 201214 yr Author Selection show is on ESPNU. I actually hope to see Iowa get a bid. They're so schizophrenic that they could make for some good matchups.
March 12, 201214 yr I don't think I can make the trip to Mississippi. Was really hoping for a matchup with Northwestern but glad the Birds are back in the NIT.
March 12, 201214 yr MSTU is going to win this thing...book it! Seriously though, impossible to predict this thing cause you never know who is coming to play and who just doesn't care. I do think MTSU has a great shot because they're pretty darn good and I think they'll be wanting to play...
March 12, 201214 yr Tennessee actually has a real shot here, they're a much better team than they were when they started the year and that might push them to really be up to compete in this

As a team that will return everyone except one player, they could gain some valuable tournament-like experience. I hope they come ready to compete and not have a typical letdown of a NIT team that barely missed the NCAA Tourney.
March 15, 201214 yr QUOTE (Heads22 @ Mar 14, 2012 -> 11:06 PM) Arizona loses at home to Bucknell. Nice season Pac 12 Normally I'd say this is a case of a big school just going through the motions but this is the Pac-12 we're talking about.
March 15, 201214 yr QUOTE (kev211 @ Mar 14, 2012 -> 11:58 PM) ISU and UNI... MVC with two upsets I was jumping around like a buffoon. Hell of a game played by the birds. Nic Moore is going to be so good. A MVC matchup at MSG is my dream.
March 15, 201214 yr ISU is still undefeated against the SEC all time at 6-0. I really don't want to work tomorrow. This game was too exciting.

March 15, 201214 yr QUOTE (kev211 @ Mar 15, 2012 -> 12:30 AM) With ISU and the Bulls I was going nuts plenty of times tonight. I only caught the end of the Bulls game and I didn't have any energy left after the Birds. My friends neighbors must have thought we were crazy as we are singing the fight song at the top of our lungs after the game.
March 19, 201214 yr QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Mar 19, 2012 -> 04:59 PM) Cheering on the only MVC or Illinois team still playing. Beat the Trees! Witchita St or Creighton should be so lucky to miss the real tournament so they can win some games on the NIT.
March 20, 201214 yr QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 19, 2012 -> 05:46 PM) Witchita St or Creighton should be so lucky to miss the real tournament so they can win some games on the NIT. You make a very valid point. I don't know why they accepted an invite there.
