What tournament does Ill. St. go to

Great tournament for the Red Birds. Nic Moore is a keeper. Where do they go in the post season?

They should be one of the last teams into the NIT.

I would guess CBI. I don't think they will get in to NIT because ISU didn't earn it over the full season. Would love to get into the NIT though.

Not sure if their resume is good enough, but they deserve the NIT. Showed great in the MVC tourney, huge win and an OT loss to 2 top 25 teams. They are definitely one of the best 96 teams whether they get in or not. Need to route for all the conference champs to win their tourneys.

Hopefully an NIT road team with UNI. Drake, Evansville, ISUB and MSU in CBI/CIT.

Birds beat the #14 team and then showed well against the #25 team: NIT

I hope so, but not sure our RPI is going to be good enough.

Redbirds deserve to be in the NIT over UNI

cbi and cti will be well populated with valley teams :roll:

I had heard MSU wasn't eligible due to a sub .500 record...is that true?

by **Jet915** » March 4th, 2012, 5:13 pm

Aren't they 16-16? I know CBI requires atleast .500 team I think...
