Somehow, Day Two NIT games like Charlotte-Providence didn't generate the same kind of buzz as last night's Kentucky game. Why? Everyone tuned in yesterday to rubberneck an accident.
In case anyone's interested, the CBI and CIT Tournaments also resumed play tonight. The mighty Boilermakers of Purdue triumphed in their gladiator battle with Western Illinois. Texas was eliminated. The show goes on for the Anteaters of UC Irvine.
I wonder who Obama has winning in his CBI Bracket?
Talk of the SEC seceding from the NIT is overblown. Everyone but Kentucky needs the NIT. Many SEC teams could go a decade or more between NCAA Tournament bids. Those teams need the NIT to maintain some kind of post-season action and keep their programs on life support.
