Notre Dame a No. 2 Seed in the NIT

While the NCAA Tournament Selection Committee might have passed up Notre Dame when they were picking who would get at-large bids into their tournament, the Irish were fortunate that the NIT, the National Invitational Tournament picked them up. Notre Dame was selected as a No. 2 seed in the NIT, which is comprised of 32 teams. You can look at the entire bracket right here.

One of the best things about the NIT is that the games are played at the higher seed’s home gym. So although I previously said that the last regular season home game was probably the last time you’d get to see the Notre Dame Fighting Irish on their home floor this year, I was completely mistaken. Now, you’ll have at leas this Tuesday’s game.  Notre Dame will play UAB, a 7-seed, in the opening round of the tournament tomorrow at the Joyce Center. Get your tickets now!
