North Texas punches its ticket into the NIT CHAMPIONSHIP game.

Wisconsin = 54
(Big10)

North Texas = 56
(2023-24 AAC Member)

The Mean Green held the Badgers scoreless for the last 9 minutes of the game and UNT came back from 12+ down to win.

The Future members to the AAC are 16 and 1 in the post season this year.

I've always been a fan of both Higgins and Kissinger.

2 great officials. Higgins is Higgy, but Kipp does a fantastic job with less fanfare. I absolutely LOVE when I see either of those guys doing our games.

[Stickboy46]

Why not? They’re both great stories and two really good teams.

I mean, the forum name gives it away.

That's not what he said.

No, but the results are the same.

I guess I should have quoted the post, before other replies came in. Ha

Yep, you know you'll get 'fair shake' with both of those guys...

K-STATE had pissed this away

Loved every second of it. Tang is a feel-good success story, but I hope he losses every game he coaches at k-state. It will interesting to monitor year 2.

K-state loses a good one in Nowell, but, Nowell is to FVV what Jameer Nelson is to Chris Paul. I felt the need to put that out there.

that's the way I mistook it

Fixed!

That's not what he said.

that's the way I took it

[pogo]

That is a pretty interesting criteria for making it to the final four. A P-5 school with a large fan base. That sounds just anal enough that a majority of the beakers will believe this is the way it should be. What a bunch of sanctimonious pricks.

[Kung Wu]

I typically don't agree with Whitlock on anything but in this case he is right on. NIL and the Transfer Portal are going to ruin college sports.

That's not what he said.

I willing to bet that the Championship game get more than 17.052 million this year.
