Yeah Its a shame. They deserve the NCAA but losing their opening CUSA tournament game will cost them.Looks like MT may be headed to the NIT.

As of Friday morning, Joe Lunardi has MTSU getting an at-large spot and an 11 seed. He picks ODU to win the CUSA tournament and getting a 13 seed (and playing 4-seed WVU in the 1st round). Of course, there are still 3 more days of hoops to shake things up. Lunardi has his critics, but there are few with better NCAA prediction histories.Looks like MT may be headed to the NIT.

Losing your last two in a row will hurt as well. That's not the type of momentum the NCAA wants to seeYeah Its a shame. They deserve the NCAA but losing their opening CUSA tournament game will cost them.

True.Nitpick, Lunardi makes no effort to pick winners of conferences in that situation. He just "plugs in" the highest remaining seed. He is not actually saying he thinks ODU, or anybody else, is going to win. Just that if it goes "chalk" this is where the "chalk" team would end up.
If there aren't many more upsets, I'd say your scenario is more likely than not. There is also a chance for a 4 vs 13 matchup that involves two schools from West Virginia. Just throwing that out there...There is a pretty real chance that CUSA could end up with 2 in the NCAA tournament and 1 in the NIT... That's a good year for the league.
