College Insider Tournament

[purplehaze]

The "old" NIT method took geography, regional considerations and ease of travel into account

Dear UAlbany Season Ticket Holders,

 

 

 

What an incredible year for UAlbany basketball! For the first time in its Division 1 history both men’s and women’s team will be playing in postseason tournaments, quite an accomplishment!

 

 

 

The NCAA Women’s Selection Show is tonight at 7:00 P.M. You can follow along online or on TV at ESPN and ESPNHD. Additional details about tickets and possible travel will be sent to you Tuesday morning.

Wikipedia CIT story with bracket

 

However the CIT site says "Note: The fourth annual CIT will once again use the old NIT model in which matchups in future rounds are determined by the results of the previous round." Does that mean they reseed every round?

Sagarin has us about 2-point underdog (including the home court) but I think both teams have some people hurting.

So a win would count as the 2nd "up" win of the season ?

Ryder being the first

UA up 28-24. 3 mins left in half.

Score 79 and still lose...smh... porous D with some terrible officiating. Fun game though...screaming at the refs lost my voice.

 

Good effort missing some important pieces and other pieces not healthy.

[bob87]

For Clickclack, next basketball game is in 240 days away.

 

Enjoy your spring, summer and Fall.

Ugghhhhh don't remind me!

I guess if you're going to be in a post-season tournament like that you might as well have a lot of scoring with some surreal officiating.

 

If nothing else this game was a nice send-off for Jacob Iati. Another start for him and a fun night shooting the basketball. Really glad CB took him out at the end to let him get an ovation. Even better that Metcalf was the guy to go get him - well done.

To bad we didn't get to see a bit more of Rowley...had a really solid game I thought last night...10pts, 8rb, 2stl. I thought he had some great deceptive/quick moves down low, battled on the board. His emergence in the tournament and this game really bodes well for his future IMO. He needs to bulk up a bit but I like hims a lot.

 

He's a bit undersized at 6'5 but in the AE...he may work out well.
