NEW YORK — The NIT Season Tip-Off had a rather pedestrian look to it when the four host schools were announced last year. Syracuse was the class of the event, while the other three hosts were hardly locks to even reach New York. Seeing Virginia Tech upset by George Mason, Stanford by Colorado State and Oklahoma State by Texas-San Antonio wouldn’t have been far-fetched possibilities. Tech never faced Mason as Florida International took down the Patriots before falling to the injury-riddled Hokies.

On the field, the Terps have plenty to build on after nearly splitting the series with the Longhorns.

Texas (4-1) played its first game as a ranked team this season. The Longhorns rose to No. 1 for the first time in school history last January before falling out of the rankings just six weeks later. Barnes is 500-250 in 24 seasons as a head coach, with… Source: ESPN

Kansas State wasn’t the only team to establish itself early on the ground in the Big 12’s late games tonight. Missouri’s Marcus Murphy did to Texas Tech what Nebraska running back Roy Helu Jr. did to Missouri last week. On Missouri’s third play from scrimmage, the freshman broke a 69-yard touchdown run that has Missouri up, 7-0. Last week, the Tigers gave up a 66-yard touchdown run on the first play of the game to Nebraska before falling behind 24-0 in the first quarter. The Tigers will certainly score points, but the game will hinge on how well it can stop Texas Tech’s offense. The Red Raiders have put up big points often, but teams like Oklahoma State and Texas have shut them down consistently in wins. Missouri’s secondary is much improved, and even though Texas Tech is playing without receivers Jacoby Franks and Alex Torres , top targets Lyle Leong and Detron Lewis will provide a tough test for Missouri’s cornerbacks, Kevin Rutland and Carl Gettis.

Just like in 2009. Brown said an undefeated Texas would “be in the mix at the end,” as the Longhorns were last season when they carried a 13-0 record into the BCS title game before falling to Alabama 37-21. But he also suggested that fans and coaches… Source: Dallas Morning News

The Bears, though, could drop to the No. 6 seed if they can’t post their first victory in Waco against the Longhorns since Feb. 21, 1998. Following that loss, Texas won the next 24 in this series before falling to the ninth-seeded Bears 76-70 last March 13… Source: Sporting News
