This is still happening?

Had to look it up. Was not following it at all. Now I see that TCU had beaten the Hawkeyes in Iowa City. Did not know that, it's not like living in Minnesota that I would hear about it unless I was looking. I think the last time I watched an NIT games was when Morgan was coaching and Stinson and company were playing in NY or something.

Oddity, all the 1, 2 and 3 seeds are out in the NIT, and only one of those 12 teams even reached the quarterfinal round — (2) Illinois. Final 4 has two 4 seeds, a 6 and an 8 (CS Bakersfield, first 8-seed to make the semifinals).

If TCU doesn't win I have to root for CS Bakersfield. I'm headed to Phoenix this weekend to support an IT conversion for Bakersfield hospitals.Good weekend to have to go to PHX.

Oh great, so if TCU wins, which one of you crybabies is gonna make a thread complaining about how TCU has advanced further than Iowa State ever has in the NIT despite having a non-passionate fan base and strong tradition as a 'football school'?
