    Motivation for the NIT

    What teams do you expect to mail it? Who plays hard?

    I would agree with Nebraska if they were at home, but they struggled away all year.
    Crazy how Nebraska goes 13-5 in the Big 10, and manages to get a 5 seed in the NIT, lol.

    fade Louisville??

    Louisville basketball players initially voted against playing in the NIT but were later persuaded to accept an invitation when faced with the alternative of forfeiting in the tournament.Multiple sources who have knowledge of the players' wishes but were not authorized to speak publicly about them told Courier Journal the players prior to the ACC Tournament voted against playing in the NIT and then held a players-only meeting on Sunday night after they were left out of the NCAA tournament.
    Since the school had already filed its acceptance paperwork with the NIT, interim Louisville athletic director Vince Tyra said Monday afternoon he had to explain to the players that they couldn't withdraw from the tournament.

    Vermont is a tough one......just lost a heartbreaker a couple days ago. How motivated are they going to be in this spot? MTSU you would think has something to prove, but has struggled the last 2 weeks. Toughest game on the card tonight, imo.

    Louisville news is interesting.

    May throw the game so they are done with the season.

    I like Baylor until it reaches a neutral site. Real solid home team.

    I wonder how much the schools get for playing. For some I know they would want the revenue for a home game but I soubt USC will draw much of a crowd.

    Think Middle Tennessee mails it in tonight. They've already lost their last two games and doubt they care much about the NIT right now.

    They've had a great season in terms of covering the spread, that plus 4 could spell their doom.

    It can be a game of give and take.

    Good Luck TripleTry.
