in as they were 1st out and have made the sweet 16 in the NIT. MAC was tough and could have been 2-0 against the Big10 if the CMU/MSU game ball bounced a little different with CMU losing by 1 in that last shot. UT and Auburn got gift invitations that should have gone to mid majors (MAC & WCC) who had much better RPI. There will also be a WCC team in the NIT sweet16 since Pepperdine and SMC are playing each other tonite.


As for the 2 unworthy SEC teams, Auburn lost to a WCC team and Tennessee lost by double digits in their one NCAA game. Since the only other non Power 5 team to beat a P5 team,was the MAC (Buffalo over Auburn), MAC and WCC deserved those last births.
