NITChampVegas, baby!

Surprised how easy we handled La. Tech.

 

[Mobile Bay]

This means if we beat Memphis we are unarguably the 67th best team in the nation.

Yay!**

Fountain played great. And Tolu has been a big player for us down the stretch and he was out.

 

[Antonio Brown's Foot]

There are 68 teams in the tournament. That means we could be #69

You are horrible. Why do you support MSU? They only seem to make you miserable. Go cheer for Alabama or something. They win a lot.

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

The most overused cliche about the NIT. Oh look, it’s Mobile, now I’m not surprised.

 

[QuaoarsKing]

49th, since the last at large team (Drake) was the 48th overall seed

 

[TrueMaroonGrind]

Winning would be cool if it happens. All the experience they have had during the run is awesome. It’s gone exactly how you would want with a couple of close games. Let’s hope it translates to next year.

Multiple degrees from state would be why.

And you must not remember my many posts last fall about how I thought the Pirate was doing great things and we were improving every week.

Edit: Fixed misspelling of pirate and added the gif

This might be the worst take I’ve seen on this board. What a negative way to look at things.

I know it’s the NIT but it’s still a postseason national tournament that gives a nice trophy and I would be proud to win one. To my knowledge, we have never won a postseason national tournament in any sport, so I’d be very happy to see a trophy at the Hump next year.

And who doesn't like that?

You must not have read the people saying fire Leach six games into trying to recover from Sloppy Joe with no spring training last fall.

I'll admit that beating the team by 20 that spanked Ole Miss and knocked out Stans made this a little bit sweeter.

 

[Seinfeld]

Tough matchup tomorrow against Memphis, but I’m glad we got these extra games no matter what happens tomorrow. If we can somehow hold this group together this offseason, there’s plenty to look forward to next year

 

[anon1787432961]

They are playing their best basketball of the season and that's all you can hope for. Proud and happy for them

 

[DoomSlayer]

Yep they’ve won 13 out of 16 with 2 of those losses to a top 10 team in Houston. Memphis should have won both those games. They’ve struggled with turnovers this year though, maybe we can force some mistakes.

 

[tatedog]

Memphis' two achilles heels are FT shooting and turnovers. Just play some of that Rick Pitino Karate defense and we should be fine.

 

[patdog]

I'm not optimistic about tomorrow, but it's one game. Anything can happen. Like you say, either way, it's been a good run and creates some good momentum going into next season.

We're going to have a tough time matching up with Memphis at the guard spot. Not that they are great it's more their length and size I saw today.

 

[was21]

First sentence sounds like us season wise

 

[tatedog]

Yep, I foresee a rock fight.
