Douglas Pucci — Tue, 19 Mar 2019 10:07:51 +0000

Not every team gets invited to the “Big Dance.” For the teams that almost made it to the Final 68 on Selection Sunday, there is the National Invitation Tournament (NIT).

A total of 32 teams comprise the NIT. The first four teams left out of the 2019 NCAA tournament field will be the top-seeded teams in the 2019 NIT. They were UNC Greensboro, Alabama, TCU and Indiana.

Like last year, the NIT this year features experimental rules including an extended 3-point line and widened lane area. But for this year, the NIT will also showcase new rules for the shot clock and team fouls per half.

31 games will be played in this 82nd annual edition of the tournament from March 19-April 4. The NIT Semifinals (Apr. 2) and Final (Apr. 4) will be held at New York City’s Madison Square Garden. All of these tournament games will be televised on the ESPN family of networks: ESPN, ESPN2, ESPN3 and ESPNU. The NIT will be available through ESPN’s digital platform WatchESPN, accessible on computers, smartphones, tablets and connected devices to fans who receive their video subscription from an affiliated provider.

The Gonzaga Bulldogs remained at No. 1 after extending the nation’s longest winning streak to 20 games. Virginia stayed at No. 2 after winning both its games last week.

North Carolina and Tennessee both moved up two spots, to Nos. 3 and 5. Duke fell one spot to No. 4.

No. 15 Virginia Tech had the biggest climb, moving up five places after knocking off Duke in its only game last week.

Central Florida, at No. 25, is ranked for the first time since the 2010-11 team reached No. 19 during a four-week stint in the AP Top 25. They handed No. 12 Houston its second loss of the season on Mar. 2 while ending the nation’s longest home winning streak at 33 games.
