The NCAA Tournament gets all the fanfare, but let's not forget there's another prestigious tourney going down in Texas this week.
Under normal circumstances, the NIT fields 32 teams and is played at Madison Square Garden. But this year due to COVID, the NIT has been moved to the cities of Denton and Frisco, Texas, and only 16 teams will compete.
In terms of the NIT odds at
SportsBetting.com, two of the "first four out" are at the top of the board (Louisville opted not to participate).
Colorado State was the other team of that group, but Memphis is actually ahead of the Rams on the list of odds.
Below are the opening NIT odds from
SportsBetting.com, and current numbers can be found here:
