Bigger Snub - NCAA or ESPN?

Postby RE Tycoon » Thu Mar 27, 2014 12:10 am

Nothing on NIT or our game. Spent about 45 minutes on Miami vs. Indy??? Is that the new Super Bowl, Yankee, Tebow game wrapped into one? Live shots and all?

I hate that ESPN is King, they're the worst.

That was a good game, but I agree it's been pretty excessive.

You'd think the fact that the NIT is on the ESPN networks would at least merit a brief mention. When's the last "new content" SportsCenter of the night?

ESPN was having a virtual digital orgasm over the Heat/Pacers matchup, that dominated SportsCenter tonight.

Nothing you can do about it.

Not to bring down the mood, but I'd say excluding that shot from the SportsCenter Top 10 provides a definitive answer to anyone that thought NIT exposure is even worth comparing to NCAA exposure. Hell, #10 was basically just NCAA tournament team practice.

Exactly. Not Important Tournament

However, I do have a new found respect for the NIT. We have faced 3 exceptionally good teams.

I don't necessarily agree, SMU has had NIT highlights on the top 10 here in the last week.

Tonight was a big NBA night with the Heat and the Pacers facing off. That dominated tonight and it is OK.

The NIT is what it is, and I am having fun with it.

We have dug ourselves out of 3 straight early holes in the NIT. Larry wants to see how we respond to adversity
