The 2024 National Invitation Tournament has had its fair share of madness so far, and now it’s down to eight teams. Nevertheless, all the squads in the quarterfinals are seeded, with a singular one-seed Indiana State making it through.
ISU took down Minnesota by a 12-point margin in the second round — now, the Sycamores look to pad their impressive 15-1 home record in Terre Haute today against No. 2 Cincinnati. The Bearcats beat No. 3 Bradley by 17 and are ISU’s first seeded opponent of the tournament.
Two hours prior, No. 4 Georgia takes on No. 2 Ohio State, both of whom won their second round games by 8 points. Georgia upset No. 1 Wake Forest while the Buckeyes beat Virginia Tech.
Here is everything you need to know about today’s men’s NIT schedule, including tipoff times and TV and streaming options.
