If Villanova wins, do they automatically get the home game? If VCU wins, do they get the home game because they beat #1? I know there is no "seeding", but is there any rhyme or reason to who's at home from here on out? Or is it just a random decision by the NIT once the teams are set? So many questions. GO BULLS!

Someone mentioned last night that if VCU wins, we get the home game. Don't know if that's official though or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You "put in" to host and hopefully the NIT gods approve it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is there is a process to determine who the home team is, but that involves a sacrifice to the NIT gods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
