Pitt to KC Next Season

Filed under: Basketball,Non-con,Schedule — Chas @ 10:51 am

Pitt will be playing in the CBE Classic next year.

The field includes Texas, Wichita State and Iowa. Each team will play a couple games at home, and the four regional hosts (i.e., name teams) are guaranteed to advance to Kansas City. There they will play two more games.

Tickets for the games in KC went on sale today.

The actual match-ups in KC will not be announced for a while.

Excellent for Pitt. A solid looking exempt tournament that gets ESPN coverage. The way it looks is they will try to set it up so Pitt and Texas would meet in the Championship game.





Great tournament to get into. Duke and Marquette staged a classic in this one a few years ago. Good teams show up for this one, and you have to hope that Wichita State and Iowa bounce back. (Are they the other regional hosts, or just other teams in the field as of now?)

Why does Friday seem so far away? I am going slightly crazy.

You are all going down in the Pitt Blather Bracket Challange. I took PITT to win it all.

@Murphy,

That’s only because his balls are so gigantic that he can sink the big time shots, such as in the game against Douche last season at the Garden. Wooo!

Wichita State – aren’t they the Shockers?
