Can anyone tell me if UNM was selected to the NIT? The selection announcement is on ESPNU radio, but there is no affiliate in my area.

thanks

San Diego St., Auburn, Florida, and Creighton get the number one seeds in the NIT. IMO, South Carolina deserved it as well as St. Marys. I would have moved out Auburn and Florida personally.

I look forward to seeing more of Auburn. That was a great game they had with Florida in the SEC tourny. And Stephen Curry vs. Devan Downey is a heck of a matchup.

I'm hoping for a Stephen Curry-Patty Mills match-up just to see how well Curry compares athleticism wise with another PG in his draft range.

The Northwestern Wildcats have worked all season for the opportunity to play in the postseason. Bill Carmody, Craig Moore, Kevin Coble and Michael Thompson talk about how they're preparing for the NIT and what they expect out of their first round matchup with Tulsa.

Steph Curry handles his business at South Carolina. 32 points in an ugly, ugly game. Downey finished with 18 but he and Frederick were awful in the first half. Davidson/St. Mary's might just happened.

Curry did great against the pressure, and only about 2 or 3 of those TO's were his fault, the rest were his teammates just not being on the same level as him.
