Message: [QUOTE="domestu, post: 4957797, member: 1089"] The NIT has always favored playing early round games at sites with large fan bases. The tournament announced a new selection format in October that will guarantee the top two teams based on the NET Rankings who do not receive bids to the NCAAs from each of the six major conferences: ACC, Big East, Big Ten, Big 12, PAC-12, and SEC. Those schools will be guaranteed the right to host a NIT game in the first round. The NIT has decided to stop giving automatic bids to regular season conference champs who lose in their league tourney and the other 20 bids will go the best remaining teams regardless of conference. Four of those schools will be chosen to host an opening round game. Go Cuse! [/QUOTE]
