Julie Jacobson/Associated Press

TCU and Georgia Tech's college basketball teams will square off in the men's National Invitational Tournament championship game on Thursday at 8 p.m. ET. ESPN will televise the game at Madison Square Garden, New York City, and it can also be live-streamed on WatchESPN.

Here's a brief look at some notable points about each team before a prediction of the winner and final score at the end.

TCU

The Horned Frogs can win in numerous ways. They can take low-scoring slugfests, as the Horned Frogs did in a 68-53 win over a stout defensive team in Central Florida, and they can win shootouts, as they did in a 94-92 overtime victory over Iowa in Iowa City.
