Colorado vs. Texas Southern 7PM Wednesday

[Junction]

First round NIT.

Second round would be against Cal/Ole Miss winner

 

[Buffnik]

#1 Seed in the NIT

Playing Texas Southern. Then we host the winner of Cal vs Ole Miss.

 

[CarolinaBuff]

Gee, how exciting.....

 

[Shldr2Shldr]

They both at the CEC?

 

[Junction]

CSU is the #3 seed in the same region. They play Fairfield in the first round.

Just saw Hahvahd is a #6 seed, playing at 3 seed Okie Lite. That seems like Hahvahd really got screwed.

 

[RK]

where is the elite 8 game against csu gonna be played?

 

[Junction]

They both at the CEC?

I'm sure the first round will be. They didn't really say anything about sites, but we are the #1 seed in the region, so we should be at home as long as we want, I would assume.

 

[Lt.Col.FrankSlade]

Nice! A couple more home games will be a nice way to close out the season.

where is the elite 8 game against csu gonna be played?

Probably the Pepsi Center, if the lammies get their way

 

[Shldr2Shldr]

I hope we trounce CSU. I hope we win every game by double digits. And I hope the pussy cats choke in the second round...

So, our first big postseason game is against a team that the selection committee would use as a reason to keep us out of the tourney?? Noice! :rolling_eyes:

CU twitter is saying 5 MDT

 

[Junction]

They did on the bracket. But then they put up a graphic saying 9 eastern, which makes more sense...

CU twitter is saying 5 MDT

I saw 9pm EDT on ESPNU

 

[dio]

Hope we play well. I have a quite a bit of fear that our team is going to be feeling pretty letdown now that the adrenaline of the last month has worn off, and disappointment has set it.

This will give us a good idea of what kind of coach we have.

I thought it said 9pm EST

 

[RK]

Cu just updated their twitter to 7 pm mst

I had the same concern. That's why getting the 1 seed was so important. We don't have to bring our A game to beat Texas Southern. We'll need to play well if we want to beat Cal or Miss, though, in the 2nd round. But by that point their heads should be back in it.

 

[BuffNut99]

Whooptie friggin doo. The team is going to be so down. I hope we treat the NIT seriously, but that's going to be hard.
