Sioux04 Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Not sure, but I went to the wiki site and it showed approx. 20 teams that have already accepted invites....didn't see UND yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sioux04 Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 I hope we get in; those guys really deserve to keep playing March basketball. Didn't see NDSU on that site. Does it look like they'll get an NIT bid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
82SiouxGuy Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Here it says that we are being mentioned for a CIT bid http://nycbuckets.com/cbicit-tracking/ They may be referring to NDSU instead of UND. Both should be under consideration, but based on the other schools mentioned that are hoping for a bid to the NIT it looks like they may have the schools confused, again.

I think they have it right because when you click on North Dakota it leads you to the GFHerald and the article talks about how a CIT bid is a possibility.

Then they either believe that NDSU is a lock for the NIT, or they have forgotten NDSU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND1983 Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Didnt they see baby Saul crying in the post-game press conference after his team of juniors didnt win the tourney? Then go on to try and convince everyone how great his team is and how its NIT worthy? If the NIT saw that classy display, they are in!

UND92,96 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Should be fun. I'm really happy for the team to get to play another game, and the fact that it's against Jake AND that it's Jones' alma mater makes it all the better. Jones (UNI grad) vs. Jacobson (UND grad).

Dustin Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Where did you find this info so soon?! I've been all over the internet in the last 15-20 minutes, and nothing. Maybe I'm internet challenged! Anyway, tough draw for them, and I think we'll neet a Weber State type of effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sioux2013 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I wish we were playing someone other than a team we've already played. Northern Iowa at their place is a very tough game for us. Northern Iowa beat Creighton and Witchita State at home in the last month. Glad they are playing but a very tough draw on the road, agree we will need a Weber type of game from everyone again.

Dagger Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 NDSU is traveling to Western Michigan. Our game at Northern Iowa is a lot more appealing than that game. I am sure that Bison fans would rather be playing a Missouri Valley team. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoSiouxFan Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Guess you don't have to be a .500 team after all to make the tournament (Chicago State 11-21). I think Weber State (26-6) deserved to be in the CBI or maybe even the NIT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NODAK13 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Not to mention the disparity in RPI ranking between UNI and WM. Beating UNI at home would be a major boost for the UND program. Northern Iowa RPI is 80 and UND is 227. UNI has a better RPI than Weber and Montana. This would be a huge win for the program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Weber State (26-6) deserved to be in the CBI or maybe even the NIT. The Great West Conference gets an autobid to the CIT. Chicago St. won the tournament this year. That is how UND got into the CIT the last two years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teeder11 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Dumb question. Does RPI adjust and update as quickly as pairwise rankings do in college hockey. In other words, what is our " current" RPI based on -- recent games, beginning of the year or mid season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definately will be a challenge. Hopefully it is a repeat of the Weber games. Blown out in the regular season, give 'em hell in the post season. Northern Iowa is a tough draw, but I don't feel they are heads and shoulders above us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other words, what is our " current" RPI based on -- recent games, beginning of the year or mid season? There are a few different sources for the basketball RPI, but I think the most readily accessible one to fans is realtimerpi.com. During the season, it updated a day or two after each game. Currently it has North Dakota at 224. For comparison, Montana is 75, Weber St. is 85. This is not an official source, I think the NCAA maintains that and I don't think it is updated as quickly as this one. It is based on the enitre season.

Dustin Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Just random thinking here, so don't rag on me too hard: Is the CIT a NCAA-sanctioned event? If not, do NCAA rules apply, such as transfers, red-shirts, etc.? I'm guessing they still would, but not sure why. Just wondering if we'd be legal to play some of the guys we've been waiting to see.
