As the highest-visibility week of the college basketball season has unfolded, lots of talented teams have seen their seasons end since brackets were announced on Selection Sunday.
But TCU still can maximize its March experience and gets a chance to secure a final home game if the Horned Frogs (20-15) can knock off Iowa (19-14) in Sunday’s second-round NIT matchup in Iowa City, Iowa (4 p.m., ESPN2).
It’s an opportunity that TCU, as the No. 4 seed in its NIT quadrant, did not anticipate when the Frogs learned they would be returning to the postseason for the first time in five years.
