The set-up: Two hungry teams collide in the Championship Game of the NIT. The Bison come in off an impressive 71-64 win over high-flying Wichita State, while The Longhorns smashed No. 1 seed TCU 58-44. These two schools got to this point behind some extremely aggressive defensive play and I don't expect anything to change here. Note that Lipscomb held the Shockers to just 35 percent shooting, while Texas held TCU to only 28 percent from the floor.

The pick: Take it for what you will as well, but Lipscomb has seen the total go "under" the number in eight of ten already this season after three or more SU wins, while Texas has seen the total dip "under" in 16 of 24 as a favorite this year. This number is high, play the "under."
