.......and no NIT for anyone else in the A-10, I was suprised not to see Rhody and Duquesne there. There were a lot of conference regular season champions(~14) that are automatic qualifiers.

Three A-10 schools will be in the CBI, both games on Wednesday:
Bona starts at UCF
Rhody hosts Miami (OH)
If they both win, they would face off in their second game.
Duquesne has a long road trip out to Montana.

No A-10 in the CIT.

So from the A-10 standings:
1. Xavier - NCAA (at-large)
2. Temple - NCAA (at-large)
3. Richmond - NCAA (automatic)
4. Duquesne - CBI
5. George Washington --
6. Rhode Island - CBI
7. St. Bonaventure - CBI
8. UMass --
9. Dayton - NIT
10-14 --

GW did well in league play, but their RPI was in the mid 100s, and their first-round exit in the A-10 sealed their end-of-season.

How come Duquesne didn't get an invite to the NIT?

NIT had I think 14 automatic qualifiers this year so there wasn't much room for At large. Finishing 2-7 didn't help their cause either.

Temple wins vs. Penn State in the NCAA 1st round 66-64, great job OWLS!

College basketball is still about coaching as Princeton and Morehead State just showed.

Louisville didnt get outplayed? It was all coaching? What did Louisville shoot from the foul line? Do you think that had to do with their loss?
