I agree, I'm tired of the NIT. Every year I tune into the tournament and watch what seems to be every College basketball team in the nation play in the big tournament except us. I really want to see us get in because to be honest, we will be one of those teams no one wants to face. I have faith in Jans coaching style in the tournament

It looks like the SEC guys were right and the loss did not really hurt us. NET is still the same at 43. Actually going to overtime helped because I think there is something in the formula with that. It is more important that we win the next 2 home games. Outside of TCU, we have not beat any top teams at home this year. Ironically, this is what will cause us to not make the tournament. Typically if you have 4 power 6 road wins along with 2 neutral court power 5 wins you normally make the tournament easily. Losing home games has been the downfall to this team
