UTEP 80, Houston 77 Final

[The XtC]

UAB will play Virginia Commonwealth in the NIT first round

Houston @ Nevada in the CBI

Tulsa hosts Miami (Ohio) in the CBI

UTEP hosts Utah in the CBI

Interesting that Houston chose the CBI early (accepted the bid before the NIT selection process began) but elected to play on the road first, to avoid paying the "Host fee".
