    Little controversial end there with State down by 2 and shot clock off comes down and after some physical contact (shall we say) loses the ball to Xavier ----- but NO foul on Xavier. State called for a foul with .3 seconds left - Xavier makes both FT's and that's it. Xavier advances.

    Lot of hot chicks in the stands. Great game!

    Now Washington State and Santa Clara!

    Can't believe I'm watching, but Rutgers/ND in double overtime, 79 all.

    Best thing is listening to Avery Johnson due color. Unique voice, didn't know he was now a broadcaster.

    Edit: sorry actually a NCAA play in game. Could easily be 2 NIT teams tho. :). ND wins by 2 at the buzzer.

    The 2nd NIT game is interesting because Todd Golden worked under Washington State Coach, Kyle Smith. By watching this game (WSU vs TAMU), Florida fans may get a hint of Golden's offensive/defensive systems.

    Buzz Williams's Texas A&M Aggies have continued to be on a tear since being snubbed from the NCAA selection committee.

    Clip of Kyle Smith:

    Interestingly, Washington St has a player named Michael Flowers who had surpassed the school record for 3-pointers previously held by Golden St's Clay Thompson. Michael Flowers Stats | ESPN



    Texas A&M vs. Washington State prediction, odds, line: 2022 NIT semifinal picks, best bets from proven model

    ============================
    In the first NIT game, Xavier vs St Bonneventure, these are two teams that Florida has played before -
    Xavier, only recently in the NIT.
    St Bonne, once in a play-in game in the NCAA Tournament.

    Xavier over St. Bonneventure in the early game.

    The second game should be another good one. Both teams looking very competitive so far!

    As much as I pull for the SEC - and this A&M tonight, I've always liked the Cougars from seeing Ol' Crimson flying every CGD!
