2012 NIT Bracket Picks
By Mike Vamosi
NIT Final Four, Madison Square Garden
3 Oregon Ducks v. 2 Miami (FL) Hurricanes – The pick: Oregon
I’ll admit this is a personal pick for me that goes back to Dana Altman Getting revenge for a controversial call that went against Creighton in a 2008 second round NIT versus Miami (FL) in Omaha. I like E. J. Singler, Garrett Sims and Devoe Joseph to get this team to the finals.
1 Drexel Dragons v. 1 Arizona Wildcats – The pick: Drexel
Once again I’m taking the Dragons to continue their spite/respect tour and being closer to home than the ‘Cats let’s just say that’s the difference.
NIT Finals, Madison Square Garden
3 Oregon Ducks v. 1 Drexel Dragons – The pick: Oregon
Here is why I choose the Ducks over the Dragons, its postseason success. As you know Oregon under coach Altman marched their way to a CBI championship which is pretty much the bases for me in this postseason run. It was hard to choose against Drexel but last season will help the Ducks in my opinion.
