The Battle for 98th

I almost forgot to mention the most unimportant basketball tournament, now in its 2nd year of operation:
It's the College Basketball Invitational! After the NCAA selects 65, and the NIT selects 32, the CBI selects 16 more teams... and only one can then claim rights to being 98th best in the country!

They are down to a Final 4 of:
Stanford
Oregon State
UTEP
Richmond

Only one Big East team was invited (St. John's) and they lost in the 1st round. Granted, it's possible other Big East teams were invited but were just too proud to attend.
