Title: The NIT Final Four -- a preview Post by: SUPERCOACH on March 28, 2011, 10:50:13 PM Guess who they have as the favorite to win the tournament. :D
Quote While the college basketball world is buzzing about next weekend’s NCAA tournament Final Four in Houston, we've got a Final Four of our own right here in our backyard, competing for the National Invitation Tournament championship. It may lack the prestige of the Big Dance, but four quality teams have descended on the Big Apple this week -- three teams from BCS conferences, and a member of one of the best mid-major conferences in the country. They'll play on Tuesday and Thursday nights at Madison Square Garden, airing on ESPN2. And here's a preview of what you'll see: Quote PREDICTION Alabama's defense is strong enough for the Crimson Tide to prevail over Colorado, while Klay Thompson has a big game in leading Washington State over Wichita State. And in the championship game on Thursday night, Alabama puts the shackles on Thompson, and Anthony Grant gets to hoist the NIT trophy, before watching his former players take on Butler in a fairy-tale NCAA national semifinal.

They have a guy named Burks that averages 20 and another, Higgins, gets 16 a game. But between the two, they draw 13+ fouls a game. They have two post players that split time, but together average almost 12 rebounds a game. They are a poor defensive team and there is an opportunity here for JG to have a big night. RTR
